You are and will always be the heart and sole of the Lobrin Family. You came to America to fulfill and provide for your family. And you accomplished. You showed your brothers and sisters that with goals and determination, we can succeed and prevail. And now we lay you down to rest to enjoy the kingdom of eternal happiness. There are not enough words to show you my sincere gratitude for all that you have done for all of us. May you watch over us and hope that we create the same legends that you have laid for us.
Rip Uncle Joe and thank you. Love you.
