Interesting have many great memories of Joe and too many to share. The best thing we did was buy the Goldwing and had it tricked for him. We enjoyed that bike a lot and it made us both happy! I will miss him forever

We love and miss you so much!!!! We have such great memories of the years we did have together but wish we had more time. 12 years have now passed but we still laugh and say dad would have loved this. You have missed out on our six beautiful grandkids that we wish you were here.
Love to you always!!!

Aunt Joann-
Words just aren't good enough to say how sorry I am for your loss and how much we will miss Uncle Joe. I often think of our walks to the lake and the times we spent together. Please know that I am always here for you. Love you

Joann, I can't begin to express the sadness in my heart for you and your family (and all of us). I haven't the slightest doubt Joe is happy and feeling great now, but we will miss our human interaction with the man we all loved. I pray that the holes in our hearts -- expecially yours -- will eventually be filled with smiles and happy memories. There certainly are lots of them to recall! Please believe that the angels have you wrapped in their wings during this difficult time, and that includes Joe. Sending you love and hugs from a distance. Sissy

Dear Jo and Family, What a shock to hear that the strongest personality of our Empire Lake gang could fall so soon? There were almost thirty years since we last sat around the summer campfires at the lake. It went by so fast. Joe and Jo's campsite and home was famous for taking in us strays and providing a home atmosphere, especially during the Holidays. I can't thank you and Joe for the years of friendship and countless extraordinary meals. There is huge hole in all of our lives from the loss of Joe Kristek. Our prayers are with you all. Dan Young and family
