Dear Elaine, Catie and the Fahey Family,
We were so sad to hear that Joe had passed. Frank and I both worked with Joe for many years at Panasonic. He was always quick to talk to me about family and life in general, we could hardly get our work done. He was especially proud of Catie! Our loss is heavens gain.
Fondly,

Dear Elaine & Caitie,

We are so sorry to hear about Joe's passing. I always enjoyed getting together with Joe during our years at Panasonic. He was really one of the good guys. Elaine, my fondest memory of Joe was when the two of us waved to you and Lynn from the top of the Chichen Itza Pyramid in Mexico.

Take care of yourselves and God bless you.

Dear Elaine & family, I was so shocked and sorry to hear of your loss. I was just thinking of the ole' Panasonic Days where I worked with Joe for many years and had many laughs. I wish to express my deepest sympathies to you. Although I have been out of state for many years, Joe will always be someone who I am proud to say was my friend. God bless,

Dear Elaine & Caitie:

I also worked with Joe for many years at Panasonic. I remember
how he just beamed with delight whenever he spoke of his girls—
you were his life. Joe was a very kind man and his infectious
upbeat spirit always brought a smile to my face.

May you find strength and comfort in knowing that HE always
takes the angels.

God Bless you both during this difficult time.

My Uncle Joe was someone to look up to. I still remember playing video games in his bedroom, and watching movies on his big screen TV. I still remember Uncle Joe being the first person to teach us how to surf the internet.

My Godfather. While I don't remember you holding me while I was baptized, I will never forget the way in which you were always there for all of us.

I always looked for you at family parties as some to talk to and spend time with. You could always make everyone laugh.

Uncle Joe, you will be missed. You were an amazing man, who has raised an incredible daughter.

Auntie Elaine and Caitie,
I love you both so much.

Love always,
Michael

To my big brother,
You always made me feel like I was your best friend. I could always be myself with you. You always made me laugh. You always made me smile. You had a great outlook on life. It makes me so sad that we lost you too soon. I know that when I pray that you will listen and always be with me. Say Hi to Lee and Dad. I love you always.

To Elaine and Caitie,
Whatever you need whenever you need it I will always be there for both of you. I love you both very much.
Love always,
Christine

Joe played a major part in the best work experience I ever had while at Panasonic.Joe and I were room mates for many Panasonic sales events,and I will always be greatful for the night he slept by the pool while I was exploring the more esoteric aspects of Hawian culture.Joe was one of the great ones. I loved the Kid,and will miss him a whole heck of a lot.Rest in peace Guido.

Elaine & Katie: I am so sorry for your loss. Joe spoke so highly of both of you and we would share stories instead of working. He is a great man and I will miss him.

The 1st day you pulled up in that IROC to the family party, my mouth dropped and I knew this future brother in law of mine has a cool taste in cars. As time past and you welcomed me into the family it was clear how kindhearted you are and always carry a smile. Joe, I am going to miss your upbeat outlook on life and the positive spin you could put on any situation. love you brother in law

Joseph welcomed me into his home with open arms some years ago when I became friends with his daughter. His interests in the sciences, cars, and music, being so similar to mine, helped our relationship flourish. I am grateful for the time I had with him, the knowledge he bestowed on me, and the trust and confidence he had with me when it came to his beloved daughter. May he rest in peace.
