Christine & Family, My heart felt condolences. I happen to run into Malcolm Rolsal just recently and he told me the shocking news. Joe was one of my best and most memorable bosses. He also managed to be a great friend. I had hoped to work with him again. It was always a great time when ever we ran into each other. I will miss his humor, stories and laugh! I echo another entry as I say, Until we meet again.

I will always remember the dear sweet boy I met as a teenager at Bloomfield Jr High and remained friends with in highschool. After graguation we all went our seperate ways, but I was fortunate enough to rekindle that friendship in 2001. We would get together on his many trips to NJ with other BHS friends from so many years past. We all looked different, but once we got together it was just like going back in time. We all were blessed to have met Christine who he loved dearly. He fought so hard to stay with the family he loved. Throughout his battle he had such a possitive attitude. I will miss his e-mails that encouraged me through difficult times.
Until we meet again, I will think of you and pray for your dear family.
You are at peace dear Joey and no longer in pain. You will be missed and you will always be in our hearts.
Fondly,
Barbara Marshall Rogers

The Manhattan College alumni community shares your grief, and is now praying for our fellow alumni and the family at this time. The Alumni Office has been informed. As well as the Jasper Jottings community that I personally can reach. We are all a little poorer now. "No man is an island, entire of itself … any man’s death diminishes me". We are sorry for your loss.
