I am so sorry to just now (March 19) of Joe's passing. My Dad, Lenny, loved Joe and respected him for his knowledge and work ethic. He had a very generous heart and was a loyal friend. I’m so glad I was able to bring my Dad out to visit with Joe and some friends for my Dads 80th Birthday. My Dad was so very thrilled to see Joe. As Lenny’s daughter, I didn’t know Joe well but he was very kind and respected the fact that I was caring for my parents with Alzheimer’s/ Dementia and other health concerns. My Mom always spoke of his beautiful eyes and that he had a wonderful wife. My heart hurts for the family and may he Rest In Peace. - Posted by: Liana Rebeck/ Leaonard and Lucille Rebeck (Friend) on: Mar 20, 2019

That's really sad news for me. Mr Cabral was one of my best clients at Kenneth Barber shop, 599 Archibald, but I never got a chance to let him know when I opened my own shop, I'm pretty sure he would follow me here in Transcona. He was a funny person and one time he invited me, and my boyfriend at the time, for a Christmas party, that was fabulous, we laughed a lot. Rest in peace my friend. My sincere condolences to all the family and friends. Chantal Husson - Posted by: Chantal Husson (Was his barber) on: Feb 23, 2019
