Uncle Joe,

You will be forever remembered as a amazing Uncle. I will never eat spagetti again without thinking about you. Our hope is that you are walking among the angels and singing as loud as you can. Kiss everyone for us and tell my Dad we love and miss him.

Love JoAnn, Jonathan, Emily and Brandon
