Dear Barbara and Family,
My thoughts and prayers are with you. I know how much he loved and was loved by his family, You must feel very happy that he had that time at the Cape with you. We are on vacation, but you are in my prayers. God Bless your whole family. It sounds like you were very fortunate to have had such a great Dad and Granddad.

I especially remember your dad's nickname for Tommy (Motorcycle Charlie). I am sure you all share wonderful memories, something that can never be taken away. Love, Jerry & Rose Steele

P.S. Gerry,
When the children were little, I always remember your Mom and Dad visiting your house and he was always working on a project-I remember the picnic table he constructed-and he was always so energetic . You were blessed with two wonderful parents and your devotion to their well-being was so very special.
Take care of youself,
Love,
Arlene

Uncle Joey you will be missed by all your family. Many of my happiest childhood memories are from my week-ends at your house with you, Auntie Gerry, Janice, Sissy, Barbara and Debbie (although she was too young to remember I'm sure). I can not come to formally tell my cousins that my heart is with them but please know that you are all in my heart and in my prayers. Love Cuz Tricia and all the Greenleaf's from Massachusetts and North Carolina.
