"Uncle" Joe,

Thankfully I have many happy memories of you, your infinite kindness and intelligence, your great wit and a sense of humor second to none. Our earthly loss is my father's gain; he's been waiting for his best friend since 7/18/2006 and you know how impatient he was. I hope there's an OTB in heaven. May God bless you always.

Your father's vitality and long presence in your lives was a great gift to you - we know you will miss him, again and again. Our thoughts are with you as you remember and celebrate his life.
