Joe Pender was my and my twin sister's biological father with whom I first met when I was 35 years old. Our relationship was strained by the nature of our conception. I have brothers and a sister that obviously don't except my sister and I as siblings giving the fact that no one reached out to neither one of us to let us know of his passing. God has a plan and I trust that plan and mistakes are only our doing. My father has called my mother home and now he's called on my dad. Rest well Joe.

My condolences to the family

Bryan, so sorry to hear about your dad’s passing. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Please accept our deepest condolences for your family's loss.
