To the family of Joe Novak, I wish to express my deepest condolences!  When I was a child in the '50's at St. Leanders', my mother helped in the cafeteria.  Joe would deliver bread to the school and, like many people on his bread route, that is how my mother met Joe. She always looked forward to his friendly and positive attitude. When I met and married Ron, we were often times at the house on 606.  Occasionally, I would stop down to just say hello to Joe and Marie.  Our conversations would ultimately drift to St. Leanders' and Joe's remembrance of my mother.  It always did my heart good to hear that someone recalled my mom.  Know that I shall miss our visits!  Both Ron and I were so sorry to have missed Joe's services!

Two yellow bread trucks parked on the 600 block of Brown.  Joe and Dad laughing together.  Joe watering the lawn and waving as we drove by.  I remember these as halcyon days. 

Joe and Marie sacrificing to attend to Dad's Rosary.

I will always remember Joe fondly.

I remember visiting Uncle Joe & Aunt Marie when I was young & He would turn up the music & we all had to dance.  We laughed so much. When we headed home he loaded us up with Little Debbie treats. God rest your soul Uncle Joe.

I was a youngster last time I saw Uncle Joe. He was always very kind to me.Smiling, upbeat personality. He called my mom, Julia, right after Christmas. He sounded good and so happy to talk to her. Good bye Uncle Joe, mom and the rest of us love you.

"Uncle Joe" was a gentle kind loving man who lived next door to me while I was growing up.  Uncle Joe would always give us kids treats off his bread truck when he came home for lunch each day.  I also recall when Uncle Joe let me use his 1938 Dodge to go out on a date one time when I was in high school.  Uncle Joe always had positive energy and you couldn't help to want to be around him.  I'm so very thankful that I got to see Uncle Joe in October.  He was still the same person I always knew even though he was 94! God bless you Joe and the rest of the Novak family.  Love Bobby Edmond

My great uncle Joe will be missed and I am thankful for all the great memories and fun times remembered from all my summer time visits to Pueblo.  JulieAnne Edmond

We are sorry for your loss.  May the Lord keep him in his arms.
