James Graham wrote a sympathy message

“To the Family: Joe and Marilyn were two of my favorite people. Joe was always kind and caring when in conversations. I have several fond memories of Joe from years ago, he will be missed by many. Marilyn was a very talented lady,, I have one of her pictures in my home that she sold me as I was watching her arrange to have it framed; I said I love that picture and would love to have it, she said she would love for me to have it. My prayers of comfort are with all the family. Jamie Graham”
