Thoughts and prayers to the family. We so enjoyed having Josef and Sandy as neighbors. They were an awesome couple that touched many lives
Sending our condolences for the loss of Sandy and Joe!
Sorry so to hear this. The Hubers were our neighbors for many years on Johnson Lake, back in the 70’s-90’s. I have wonderful memories of their family. They are forefront in my prayers.
This is such sad news. You family is in our thoughts and prayers.
Sorry for your loss,
Thoughts and prayers are with your family. It was a privilege to care for Mr Huber.
Sending my heartfelt condolences. My thoughts and prayers with the family
I am so saddened by this horrific loss….I went to school with two of their boys and a daughter in law…..Sandy was our PE Swimming teacher, and Swim Team coach for the years I was involved…..may God hold the family up and show them peace and comfort that can only come from Him…..
Wish there was something I could do. Know that we are thinking of you.
My thoughts and prayers are with Reece and the rest of the family. They were neighbors of mine as a teen. I remember their dogs. Always barking when someone knocked on the gate. They were great friends and neoghbors. Mrs. Huber was always there if I needed help with homework. She had a different way of explaing it that helped my umderstand the work. They will be missed very much.
Joe was a good “kid” and hard worker.
When they first arrived he was unused to Nebraska heat. His farmer employer, (our neighbor) was concerned that he would sunburn easily since he was of fair complexion. It took awhile to convince him of the importance of wearing head cover but he did cave in.
😊. Rest in peace Joe & Sandy.🙏
Our prayers are with the family during this difficult time.
To thank everyone for all their love support and prayers over the last eight days or so I know that they will be greatly missed and their impact on this world is stronger than even I could have the capacity to know I also know they would want us to carry on the legacy to the best of our ability by making a positive impact on all of those around us Love and miss you grandma and grandpa I hope we can all make you proud everyone else thank you from the bottom of our hearts speaking for all the Huber’s
They will forever be missed. I cannot give enough thanks for the help Mrs. Huber gave me during school and after I graduated.
