Dear Desmond Family,
Sorry for your loss. Joe was one of the last of the true gentlemen, who always held onto the virtues of class, honor and respect. We've lost one of the best.

Uncle Joe I'll never forget and always treasure the memories of our Blackhawk games together in the early 60's. As a young kid I looked forward to my annual Blackhawk game with you in the old Chicago Stadium. It's a memory I still relive as if it were only yesterday. I'll miss you. Your grateful God-son, Tom
