I will always  remember Joe for his  valiant effort he put forth, trying to conquer that dreaded disease. During our weekly trips to the hospital for his treatments, he never complained about his hardship. His thoughts were positive, and always ready to laugh, or tell a funny story. We are grateful, that we were able to help during your terrible ordeal. We will miss our weekly meeting, but know in our hearts, your suffering is over. Until we meet again, God Bless and Goodbye

 

I am truly saddened by the loss of Uncle Joe, with time the saddness will pass, but his memory will live on in me and my family forever. My favorite movie as a kid and still today is Disney's, The Jungle Book. My favorite character of all time is Baloo, the big cuddly, fun loving bear. He loves to sing and dance and always have a good time. He never sweats the small stuff, and is a true friend and companion. I think that sums up Uncle Joe pretty well, and that's how we will always remember him. So when you're feeling blue about missing Uncle Joe, just think about Baloo the bear and you will be sure to smile and start singing and dancing to the song, the Bare Necessities. Now that is a great lasting memory! XOXO

I will always remember my Uncle Joe..his twinkly eyes..his

love of good ole - rock n roll - and dancing ..he showed me

the twist..and we always reminisced about that at

parties..(i will never do a twist without thinking about

him)..he always made us all laugh with his crazy jokes..he

was always so much fun to be around.

You always knew that Uncle Joe loved his family - all of us

even though the miles kept us from far in distance ..I know

that he truly enjoyed that we were all so close..so blessed

we are with such a large and loving family that remains

close throughout the years..

but what was always so evident was the strong love he had

for Aunt Gerry (like peas and carrots :) and Marilyn ..how

proud he was of you and how much he loved your new family

and his granddaughters..he was a lucky man as we were lucky

to have him in our lives...
