Joe was a wonderful man who I had the pleasure to know through his sweet daughter Peggy. Although his passing makes our world dimmer, I rejoice in the knowledge that Joe is at peace with our Savior.
Prayers are with you and your family. He is at peace with the Lord now and has no more pain or sorrow.
sorry I was not able to make the trip with Hazel & the girls—will call you later, Dottie.
We have so many great memories of our trips to North Georgia to watch the turning of the leaves—and looking for “turkeys”—-remember???
Love you very much Dottie—-and Peggy and Clay—and Michael,———- and David and Joan——-
My prayers for the Lasserre family during this difficult time. Joe and Dottie, Peggy and Clay are all wonderful people and wonderful neighbors. We will miss Joe. May peace be with you all and know that your precious one is in a better place.
Prayers for the Family..
Our love and prayers to Dottie and family at this sad time. Joe was such a nice man who we enjoyed knowing in our Sunday School class. We will have fond memories of Joe and his special smile and twinkle in his eyes. We know that he is smiling in heaven. Our deepest sympathy to Dottie and family.
We are so sorry for your loss. May the God of all comfort, continue to be with you and your family during this difficult time. We all look forward to a time when death will be no more-Rev 21:4. Our prayers are with you.
Our hearts are saddened today – However, to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. What a beautiful man of God, I found in Mr. Lasserre; down through the years. I pray the strength of our elders; past and present, for all of your days to come. This is our prayer ~ Love and blessings,
Robert, Caroline, and; Kennedy

When I had joined the Cancer Support Ministry at North Metro, I had the privilege of meeting Joe and Dottie. What a sweet couple and a delight to chat with. What I remember the most was Joe’s wit. Ms.. Dottie and family my thoughts and prayers are with you.
Dear Dottie, I was so saddened to hear of Joe’s homegoing. I know things have been difficult for both of you, and I’m grateful his suffering is over, and he’s with The Lord today. However, I know well yours is not, so I pray for you and the family for Our Heavenly Father’s
peace that passes all understanding, His Comfort and strength for all of you now, and in the days to come. Many wonderful memories of you both. Love, Beth
Peggy – So sorry to hear about your father. Although it has been many years, he was such a nice person and devoted family man. Many prayers to your family – Mark
