To the Stein family,
Sorry to hear about Joe. Joe worked for Glenbrook Auto Parts for several years and was well liked by his coworkers. He always had a bad joke or a story to tell, even when you didn't want to hear one. I hope he is in a much better place now.

With sadness and heartfelt sympathy, we only recall the many good times we shared in years past. Weddings, Bat Mitzvahs, our visits to Chicago, Cancun and our meeting in Jamaica, skirt steaks, and of his love of Liza and how proud he was of her many accomplishments and his adoration of his grandkids. We cherish all these memories.

Dear Alysa, my best friend forever,
My memories of Joe go back 50+ years. Its hard to believe he is no longer with us. He will live on in my heart and in the hearts of all those who knew him. I wish I could be there for you but you know I may be 2500 miles away but just 1 phone call away, find me any time.
