Dear Bro Joe: down and back from SA over Thanksgiving.  I found the PASS & REVIEW most interesting.  560 New AF graduates   Two squadrons of four flights plus the band all made up of new graduated recruits.   Matthew Haas looked great in his spiffy new AF Blues Uniform.  As he has turned out to being 6' 4 tall , and was the tallest man in his class. Yes, I said man.  He turned 18 last January. He has been accepted into the security service.  No supprise in that both his mom and Dad work for the Texas DMV.

Well Dad another day is gone another year is gone as life is soaring with Adventure, I surely wish you were around to tell you everything that's going on even though I'm sure you're watching over me this woman I found in my life so sweet so German and knows what she wants please watch over me as I'm sure you are I miss you and let's hope this new year brings love joy and happiness to our whole family with you watching over us

Another year gone by. Had my 79'th BD Monday so had time to reflect on our

I will miss you forever your loving son.

 Bro Joe:  the year is slipping by so fast. I think it was 2012 I dropped in and we drove down to Laughlin for the reunion. You used to go every year but I could only make one out of every five or sixth one. 
  I got a letter from Gen. Dan yesterday.  He. now does what I do at my American Legion
post, answer letters and take the dues.

Sunday morning, and I realized I had not sent you your BD card.  So I sent a prayer instead. Mis your phone calls and late night Email pix of your bandit Royal flushes

Well Joe yesterday was  your Birthday, It did not go un- noticed !!! I thought of the boys, when they were little, could not understand that you had to fly sometimes & they could not talk to you  I took a picture of you & putt in their room, so they could say good night & such Scott went one better, he would go to the window in his room, Lift up the shade, & I could hear him say "Hi Dad, Let me tell you what happened to me today. " it continued for awhile & when u came home he would say did you hear me??? I called you?Every ones in their own space now a days, I haven't seen them for quite awhile Hope your day was great & some memories floated around !!! Carole

Well Dad happy birthday, it's so hard going through these days without you by my side but there's one thing I know for sure you are watching over me,  there's no doubt about that I don't know what you did in that head on collision I just had but I felt your presence, sorry I toltaled your car but there was probably a master plan on why I got it in the first place. I miss your guidance thru our lives as it set me on proper paths to follow, I  looked up in the sky the other day and was a big H the planes made with there contrails and I just smiled. I love these little signs that bring you back into my thoughts. I Truly Miss u with all my Heart. Your Loving Son. Scott

Happy heavenly birthday to you today, dad.  Til we meet again

Dearest Bro Joe:
Visited your resting place today, with the help of our Chaplan Ray Twa. He sent me the map and pix of your headstone.  Good show, getting front center of your comrades.
Love, Bro. Rich

well done it's been three long years talking to you and missing you have been becoming one in the same I think the proudest moment of me being your sonwas swearing me into the Air Force, I still have that picture look at it almost every day, Thank you for your guidance and love couldn't of done it without you. Miss U Forever.

The days may pass and memories may fade, but the feelings are just as strong and still as meaningful as always. Love you Dad.

It's warming to know that friends remember you.  You were such a great Bother and Dad too.

Hi Joe ... I still talk with you every day Joe.   Cold and rainy here today. Just like the weather when we took our cruise to Alaska.   What a fantastic trip we had.   Always remember and never forget.   Buds forever.  Lee

Another Veterans Day, another Vet day Parade in downtown completed.  Now as the Adujtant of our local American Legion Post 655 in Haltom City, many of us pariticipated in the hour long lune of marchers,
Harley's, and floats.  Now the next annicversary, the 21st of November. 2nd year of your transition into the next Realm. You were a bessing to so many
And to me for sure.  Loving Bro. Rich

On wed. 11/11/15, I quietly thought of the times we had in our early yrs. at at March air base.  Your time in SAC  on the first yr., I was in the waiting room for a long time. finally, some looked at me & hollered for some one to come & get me as I was about to give up the fight. I must have sat there for5 hrs. I was admitted to the hospital, you were on alert, & could not help much. I was there all night, with a nurse who told me I was no better than anyone else,  & so began the struggle. sometime during the night I lost the first pregnancy. ( a result of a car accident  on my Birthday) What a way to spend Veterans Day !!  60 yrs ago. I never forget it, but time has it's way of smoothing out the memories. Being in a better place now, you  will be remembered for your time served. Your Grandson Jarred has started his own journey in life, you would be so proud of the man he has become, A hero in so many ways!! He has challenged himself to do many tough situations, going to school, & making highest grades in the medical field.  He has served his time in the war overseas, & now his plan is to serve people  here. Bless the service men everywhere , some of who gave so much, beyond just the "being in service"  they rest with you !!!!   Carole

Remembering Veterans Day, and remembering you. I will always thank you for your service to America, an early life you dedicated yourself to, to ensure a life for me, our family, and our beloved friends. Thank you, Dad.

It's 7 AM, and here you are again in my head.  As I quietly eat my cinimon bagel your voice is so clear as you were sitting across from me like you did when visiting ten years ago.
Nothing specific, just idle chatter like we always did. We'd talk of cooking, home/car maintained, planting, the weather or women.  Just guy talk.  Gosh I miss that idle chatter. Love, Rich

It's 2:00AM in Tx. So where is your pix text of the ace high full house you used to awake with?
I sure miss those 2AM texts!

Bro Joe's birthday was always so special to me.  For about 72 years!  We could always look forward to a mid summer party with ice cream and cake.  
Today I celebrated it alone, with a bowl of ice cream topped with real strawberries and low cal whipped cream.

Having lost the best friend in my life, I  celebrated ur Birthday in style, started off with a beer n oysters on the half shell, our fav past time . I miss ur words of wisdom to me from all of ur experience in life. The memories u gave me from traveling half way around this beautiful world are priceless and cherish them daily,  Wishing we could have that one last memory together.    I miss u with all my heart Dad . P.S Say hi to Jerry for me.  Your Loving Son. Scotty

I remembered Friday,the 24th, Thought about u having some thing  special for Dinner, Your kids are all grown up, & busy. You are thought about much, & I am getting books for the kids, with lots of the pics, since 1958. Many tears shed, while going back,& many memories too. Happy Birthday, a bit late,  Carole .. You would be so proud of Jarred He re enlisted in the Navy, & has graduated from a special ops medicine, with a 93 percent grade..

Never one to sit around on an occasion or event, we ventured out on New Years Eve 2005 at the Fremont Street Experience in Las Vegas, where we caught Cheap Trick headlining the midnight celebration. Thank you for that, and every memory we shared. Love you pops...

Hi Joe I have so many wonderful , happy memories for the good times we shared together. The memories of all that we did together are what make a friendship like ours last forever.
Lee

Well we are coming upon a one year anniversary of your Graduation.  It will be an easy one for me to remember as it's the day after my BD.  
as I go through my days here on earth, maybe as I drive along, or do the dishes, I hear you in my head just as clear as if you were here but in the next room where I can't see you.  
Love you, and watch after Judy till I get there.  Rich, wrote

Well Dad it has almost been a year since you left us, I tell ya what all that advice you gave all of us all those years have really stuck, There is not a day that goes by that I look up into the sky and see a contrail but can't see the plane creating it,  That's got to be you up there still flying around watching over all o us keeping us safe,  I shure do miss you and your wacky jokes.  Fly True and keep the wind at your back...  Love Scott John Haas

Got up yesterday, and my first thought was to call you and wish you a happy BD. Then I remembered you with the angles.  So I gave up a heart felt prayer.  I knew you were with me all day, helping me through the daily grind.  Thanks for being my friend and guide all my life!!!
Bro Rich

I can remember, Your mother gave me some pics so long ago. There she was with a tiny bundle of love & a smile so bright. she was a beautiful lady. On your date of Birth, celebration, may you sit with your Mother & Dad, & recall all those moments, smile a lot & someday All will be with you, Lets hope Heaven can handle all the laughter . Bless & Happy Birthday, Carole

A happy memory from Dad's retirement party in South San Francisco, from United Airlines. Dave Dosch was there(thank you, Dave) as well as Sandy Dahl. You're ageless now...

Dad It's been so long but yet so short of a time you have not been with us,  You Birthday is coming up and I have to say that was the greatest challenge I had in finding the right Present for a Man that had everything he needed...  I miss you terribly and Focas is a hard thing to do with a void such as yours in my life. I think of you every day and the things we use to do around this Great Big World Together,  Happy Birthday  in advance,,,7/24/34

It's Spring 2014, 
blossoms abound for a new beginning year. I daily recall the days of your, when the aroma of citrus blossoms wafted in our bedroom window.  It was so long ago and seems like just yesterday, 
Your Loving Bro

Daniel: Bro Joe spoke of you,  loveingily and often.
Unk Rich, said

May you get ready for the next phase of eternity, & meet it with pleasure & do all the things that were never done here on earth, this is a good time for you, Enjoy & Gods speed

Memories made
...love shared 
Time spent
   Treasures chosen
a life closed, a family healed,
because of a dad,
we can love...

because once
we were friends
that transcended time
we knew who we were
we understood 
the lonliness
of spirit
that travel
demands

we recognized each other 
like wolves across a valley 

that whine of a jet-engine
on take-off

a lullaby

Joe was a great family friend and was one of the greatest influences on me pursuing an aviation career. He encouraged, fostered and even generous enough to pay for those first fledgling flying hours of mine in California all those years ago. He set me on the road/airway to where I am now I will miss you greatly Sir.

it is the day
after good-bye
& the harsh light
of reason 
must prevail
what could be created 
is finished
what can be stolen
has passed
what can be learned
is begun

the embarkation gate
is now

the cacophony
of memory
will persist
to be rifled through
for Solace
as this impossible time
dissipates
into its own
memory

A memorable inturnment ceremony at the Riverside National Cemetary.  He will have the roar of aircraft overhead for  eternity from the planes at March AFB near by.  As a B-47 pilot he flew many years from those runways. His casket was AF Blue with souring bird gliffs on the side handle attachments.  How careing his daughter Karie was in the choice.  
  Joe, I'll see you again so we can continu playing Cowboys & Indians with our Daisy BB guns.  Oh what fun we had!
Your loving brother Richard.

Joe: your journey is at its end, God speed for a great after life. I am just so sorry I couldn't be there, to say a final goodbye. Carole

Joe and I shared many happy times together flying the C 130s for the Air National Guard.
After retirement we continued our friendship with him visiting Betty Lou and I in our home and with us visiting him in his. He was a great cook and host.
Some of our happiest fun times were spent in the Gourmet Room sharing martinis great food and making more memories during our military reunions.  He loved veal oscar  and oysters rockefeller.  It won't be the same without him.  We will miss him very much.  He was a great friend.  Happy he is getting the military honors he deserves.

Joe's surprise visits to us in London were always fun and much appreciated.  He was a most generous and interesting person to be with and was a significant influence in helping our son Daniel to further his interest in flying. As a result he is now a successful First Officer in corporate aviation. He will always be remembered fondly.

 So long keep, safe. You will make a great teacher for those angels waiting their wings, as you have a great history for flying     Carole

Joe and I shared a friendship through Lee Campion.  An understated great American

Nice Selection of more recent photos, anyone have some to add??  It's easy, if you have them already digitized in your computer otherwise you can do like I did and get them put on a CD at Walgrens and then load them into this book.    Thanks Lorraine for the photos, I used a couple you sent me, and others I had stored in my old external hard drive.  Joe was my best man at Judies and my wedding in 1980, and my very best friend.

May the road rise up to meet you May the wind be at your back

As every day proceeds the last I realize just what a great loss of not having my big brother to backstop my big decisions! 
Big Tear!

Dear Kristi and Chris,
You have graciously served your father in his times of need.  How thankful he must be for your love and care.  Praise God for the eternal glory that is available in Jesus Christ!
Yvonne Andrews

Dearest Kristi,
We are so sorry to hear about your Dad.  It is never easy to loose a loved one no matter what our age.  Please remember you are loved and I miss you so much hugs Gayle

Revelation 3:30 - God knock and Joe answered the door. Today Joe dines with our heavenly Father. My thoughts and Prayers are with the Haas Family and all those who loved Joe so deeply.

I remember the day(when you were at Pan Am,) You called home & when I asked how the trip was (as you were new to the job) You told me you had gotten a speeding ticket. I was totally surprised, as you were always telling me to keep an eye on your speed, Just how fast were you going? you were kind of silent & then said, "Well I was going 500, in a 400 mph)" so I will be a bit late"  as I have said before just so so many memories

I remember, many, many yrs.ago, when you were in the Air Force, With Daryl Cole & Norman Stanley, you were the youngest member of the team. When it was quiet, you would say some"little know fact",& gained the name" Joe Haas, the master of little known facts." I can see you liven things up stairs, & may we meet some time again.

Joe, You were loved not just as a father in law but as a father. I know you may not have liked me but that was your way of saying no one would ever be good enough for you son.. But I know deep down inside you did love me. I will always treasure the special gift you gave me that Christmas. My very first bottle of perfume by Tiffany and Company. I love you and will miss you. Your daughter in law Carol Haas

From all of us at the 146th Alumni Association ... May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief.
We were blessed to have JOE HAAS speak to us at our October 25, 2010 Air National Guard Alumni meeting and talk about his experiences and share that with all at our OLD TIMERS gathering.  Rest in peace .

keep the candle lit for us, we'll be there soon.
Love,Carey,Kristi,Scott,Mark

zjoe:  We will always remember you as a
most generous loving gentleman and a very
good friend and brother-in-law.May your
Soul rest in peace for eternity with our
Creator,  ken and Mary Nolan

My Dad -  he was  Generous, Caring,  Loving, Compassionate, Ever ready to help , Kind, Patient, Full of life, Adventurous, Joyful, and Faithful to his family and friends.   My constant companion these last couple of months...I'm so grateful for each minute we had together then and always.  There will never be another Joe Haas.
I hope you are now enjoying soaring on eagles wings...Til we meet again.....

May you rest in peace. Thank you for the great stories.

Joe      A friend like you comes along but once in a lifetime.        What a wonderful experience your friendship will always be for me.       Rest in peace my friend.       Lee

Ever since I remember My Father was by myside not just holding my hand but striving me to better myself, To not be afraid to go out on that path alone, Take it I was 11 years old  alone in Toyko, He still Showed me I could do it ant not be afraid. Even know he is no longer with me I can still feel him guiding me and pushing me alond "Don't be Afraid" I will allways love him and miss him dearly.
