My deepest most heartfelt sympathy goes out to all of Joes family! Joe was a HUGE part of my life growing up and he will always be in my heart. This saddens me so much to know that we lost such a wonderful man but the memories will live on forever. Sorry I will not be able to make it home for the funeral but the whole family will be in my thoughts and prayers. Love to all of you and again my deepest sympathy.
