I had the pleasure of knowing Joe when He owned the Kirkwood bowl in Studio City. He was a good friend and a true gentleman. Also his wife, Joyce was a great lady and a true blessing for Joe.I wish Joe and Joyce nothing but happiness and good health always. Sincerely, Duke Wyatt

Joe had a driving range on the road between Monterey and Salinas, California in the 1950`s. When I did my two-weeks reserve training at Ford Ord, I took lessons from Joe. He had me driving balls 200 yards with a six iron. I am glad to hear he is still alive. He is only a couple of years older than my 87. Joe was fine gentleman and it was my pleasure to know him, if only briefly.
