My name is Cindy Harz and I'm the widow of J.D. Steele AKA Joe Harz that used to be on this forum before he passed away December 2012. I was wondering if anyone was still on this site that remembers him? I saw some very warm, thoughtful comments on here after he passed that really touched my heart. Thank you, Cindy

Yes, I had a lot of correspondence back and forth about a wildcat cartridge we both used. I was about to send him a barrel job using that cartridge when he passed, ended up sending it to someone else who did good work, but I regretted not being able to send it to Joe.

If I am not mistaken, J.D. Steele posted on the Classic and Single Barrel subforum, formed and beloved by Michael Petrov, Dave Weber, Steve Dodd Hughes, and Bill Murphy. I think I got those names right. Cindy, you may want to post your comments over on that subforum. So nice to hear from you.

Cindy, I only knew your husband through this site, but I bought some parts from him here and always enjoyed his posts. It was a shock to lose him, and I'm sure many members here remember him with affection.

Joe and I did a little trading of single shot parts, and I unloaded a bunch of magazines I knew I'd never read again on him. His willingness to explain how he solved various problems was greatly appreciated. As has been said, we share your loss!

Thanks for the sweet replies, the reason I was asking is because I have several things that I thought some of you may be interested in. I have some actions and some black walnut gun blanks. I would like to sell them and I know what they're worth but I don't know anyone local that is interested in them. I thought maybe some of you could lead me in the right direction. Thanks for any advise, Cindy

I remember your husband. I corresponded with him and did a bit of parts trading. He was kind and knowledgeable. I'm very sorry for your loss.
You may consider posting the items you would like to sell in the for sale section on this forum. Pictures will certainly help the items find new homes. Best of luck. Steve
