The following letter was received from Joseph's sister on 1/30/02:

Warren,

     I was born after he died so all I know is basically what I was told to me by Mom. She now has Alzheimer's and so I can't really get anymore information from her about him.

    I believe Joseph (Josh) went into the Army after high school. I think he was stationed in Greenland for sometime. While there, he met and married a woman, Yvette, I believe her name was,  she was from Germany, and they moved to California. They had three children. Two boys and a girl. He was killed in a car accident on 2/19/63. He had just turned 27 on December 10, 1962. I came along July 6, 1964.

    I recently moved here to California in June. I was looking up the family name and found that he is buried in San Francisco. I have not been there yet but I plan to make a weekend of the trip so that I can visit him. I can't find any other information about him except that he was a Sergeant in the army.

    It was such a nice surprise to search his name on the internet and find his picture. I recognized the name of the school from what my mom told me when I was growing up. I have looked through the site and really have enjoyed trying to find him in the pictures. Thank you again for making my day.

 Very sincerely,

 Karolyn Stetina
