Hallo zusammen. Vor über 30 Jahren durfte ich Joe während meinem Sprachaufenthalt in Kanada kennen lernen. Des öfters sassen wir in der Küche bei Frieda zusammen und sprachen über die Schweiz.Seine Freundlichkeit,ruhige Ausstrahlung und den lustigen trockenen Humor ist und wird mir stehts in sehr guter Erinnerung bleiben. Ich wünsche dir Elizabeth und Margaret viel Kraft für die Zukunft. Heidi Bissig-Beck aus Luzern CH - Posted by: Heidi Bissig-Beck (Verwandt) on: Apr 11, 2013

Joe will always be remembered. Andy was over visiting Joe in the shop & Andy says to Joe " Joe you have a hole in your rubber boot" his comment " It's not because of walking too.........fast". He will always be remembered. So sorry to hear of your loss. Andy & Elaine - Posted by: Andy & Elaine Bahuaud (Neighbour in Clandeboye) on: Mar 28, 2013

I will always remember Mr. Kamer as a quiet man who spoke volumes with a simple smile. He was a good friend to my Dad, Alvin, who also passed away this month. My sympathies to his family. - Posted by: Linda Hawes (nee Bracken) (family friends / neighbors) on: Mar 28, 2013
