    To the Sutherland Family

    Joe was a good friend of mine and he taught me a lot about the game of golf. I played with him at Circled Pine and enjoyed the many golf trips down South that he organized for us. My sincere condolences to you.

    My deepest condolences on the passing of such a kind lovely gentleman. I did not know Joe well but we shared many interesting chats in passing(usually at the post office which is where I saw him last, walking his obedient little dog). So sad to think of a world without him.

    Many great memories of Joe going back to the original Legion dart league on Friday nights, Golf trips to North Carolina, all the snooker games Joe won (and I mean all) and the metal detecting ventures with his brother from the West. RIP Joe.
