Dear Fasano Family,

A sad time as we reflect on the loss of our Uncle Joe. He was always very good to those of us in the Powers family. We celebrated so many fun holidays together over the years, very fond memories.


Sincerely,
Jim Powers (Joe's nephew)

Peggy and the entire Fasano Family: I am so, so sorry to hear about the passing of the inimitable Mr. F. What a wonderful guy and a total character. Our family outings from water skiing in the middle of a rough Lake Michigan to the vacations at Big Sand Lake were highlights of my childhood. Once I started practicing law, Mr. F. was generous with his time and knowledge in helping me to become a productive lawyer. His easy laugh, kind words and sense of humor will be missed. I hate to think of the hell he might be raising at this moment with my Dad in heaven. God bless.
