Our thoughts and prayers to the Sallas family. Joey was such a caring person and was so good to our daughter, Alex. We met Joey through the Golden Knights Association and have seen him several years at reunions. We mourn his death for the family. He took Alex on a tandem jump in Chicago and introduced her, another dance fiend, to dancing locations in Chicago. Our great sympathies to the family and Josie. who Alex thinks very much of also.
