Like many of you who have lost your Dad, we share a common bond. Our Dad never won any great awards or accomplished any monumental feats. In his life, he was just an average man who struggled to provide for his family through difficult time while instilling a love for family that will live in our hearts forever. How fitting that he died on Memorial Day.

Already missed, Always loved. The Children and Family of Joseph Marvin Blincoe April 14, 1923May 27, 2013.
