The obituary that I wanted to place for Joe was more than I could afford to pay. So a short one will run in the paper. But here is what I would have liked to have said [I'm putting it here for the sake of posterity]-
- Joseph Jules Lavigne, long-time southwest Florida resident, died in Montana on December 13th, 2007.
Born September 9th, 1963, Joe Lavigne was an avid astronomer and telescope maker. He lived in southwest Florida for many years, during which time he worked at the Calusa Nature Center & Planetarium in Fort Myers. Joe moved to Broadwater County Montana and died a resident of Townsend, Montana on December 13th, 2007. He leaves behind his wife, Kim Lavigne, and his step-sons Victor and Chris.
A Memorial Service will be held for Joe on Thursday, February 28th, 2008 at the Calusa Nature Center in the Planetarium at 8:00pm. All of Joe’s friends and colleagues are invited to attend. Please visit his memorial website, www.JoeLavigne.net
