Dear Uncle Joe, So sorry to hear about Aunt Jo, but knowing she is at peace I hope will bring you comfort. I always remember her being dressed to perfection, hair done, skin so tan and the dogs! I remember good times with the Sestito family and you and Aunt JO. I hope your happy memories comfort you. Fondly,

Joe, Steve and I think of you and Josie so often. Josie was by far the most interesting, dynamic woman I had ever met. Loved to hear the stories of your lives each time we would get together years ago. Your love for her was so evident. You are in our thoughts and prayers. It was truly a pleasure to enjoy both your and Josie's friendship. She will be missed.
