May Joseph and Annette and Arlene and the rest be at peace. I knew them and am richer for it.

Dear Phyllis, It is so sad hearing the words about the loss of your Dear Dad, Joe. Our hearts go out to you. Although it was not unexpected, still it is never easy to say "good-bye" to those we love, especaily a parent, and for girls, who are often "Daddies Girl", it can be espcially heart-breaking. Andy and I had been friends with Joe and Annette since 1972 or 73. And not just "friends" but Good Friends. They were so much fun and so thoughtful, funny, fun, generous and all round "good people". We miss them so much; and as you can imagine, Andy is espcially sad to have lost one of his very best friends, long time friends. Phyllis, it has been a joy to get acquainted with you and having contact by phone. I know your parents want you to be happy. Their love will always remain in your heart. Andy and Joe spent many days out on the boat and we also spent time on their boat and, later, our boat. Just so much to miss about losing Joe and Annette. Carol and Andy Townsend, East Lansing, Mich, formally from Marco.

Lanny and Betty, my parents Dave and Mary Grossman were friends with your Uncle Joe and Aunt Annette way back when. Lanny, I did not realize that you were a nephew when we were neighbors in Copper Hill. We live in Naples, FL now, full time since 2008, and read the obituary in the Naples Daily News. We had not been aware either, that Joe and Annette resided here. Jeff and I send our sincere condolences on your loss. Warmly, Debby Waranch [email protected]
