Joe, I have just called your phone today and you did not pick up so I tried to find your new phone number on internet and that is how I find out that you are not with us anymore.
I can not belive it, I still remember you from the time we used to live in the same building on Windsor Avenue. I and my friends will always remember you as kind, pollite and life loving person.
