Joe was a co-worker at Burroughs. He was always willing to help resolve work related issues. I would say, "Call Joe, he will know how to fix it". And he always did. One of the smartest guys that I've ever known. Kayla, your grandfather was/is a great role model to guide you thru the years ahead.
I know all of Joe's friends at Burroughs/Unisys are saddened by his passing and extend their condolences.

We will miss you so much....
I hope you watching me and my sister alyissa as I write my message . I hope as you are seeing how your being in our lives and raising us as only a tiny child had such an impact on our lives. I hope you have seen me writing while I wrote about you on my facebook Tonight was the night of a loss of a loved on near and dear to our hearts. Joseph Edward Kamon he was not only my grandfather but he was like my dad. I have been by his side since I was basically born . Through out my whole 16 years we have been through ups and downs. He had cancer in his bladder that had went from his bladder to his stomach and also into his bones ..... He went from a year , to months , to weeks , and then today he went all the way to hours and then seconds ...... For six weeks he was in so much pain but he fought so hard to stay in this world but for the last couple of days he has been already half way gone ..... When I came in to find him gone in his bed in front of me I felt like my heart dropped ...... I don't think I ever cried any harder then I cried today ...... I felt like a part of me was lost but I had to keep reminding myself that he is in a better place and that he is no longer in pain or suffering at all ..... I have to keep remembering all the positive and wonderful things and memories he left in my life then the negatives...... I am okay now but I mean for the next couple of days it is not going to be easy at all ..... If there was anything I could have told him I would say " Grandpap you have been there for me through it all ..... Through me and grandma fighting over the little stupid things ..... Through my horrible decisions of self harm and mental institutions...... To my wonderful accomplishments and so much more ...... There isn't going to be a day that goes by that Im not going to think or miss u because I always will ...... You were my grandfather , my best friend , and most importantly my dad...... I will always love you and I will miss you so much ...... Rest In Peace Grandfather I will never forget you ( 10 - 12 - 14 )"
You were my favorite and the closest person to me next to grandma. I may shed a tear or cry now and again but it is only because i miss you so much ..... You were my grandfather ..... My best friend..... and more importantly like a father to me since i didn't really have a dad in my life. I am so glad you are in a much better place now and out of pain . Grandma and I did all that we could to make sure you got what you wanted in your last final days . Grandma will be okay she has everyone looking out for her especially me and alyissa. I made a promise to you as a child and I intend on keeping it . You made me promise "I Kayla Marie Kamon will never smoke , drink , or do drugs . And that I will do my best and put forth as much effort you did in my dream of maybe fallowing in your foot steps as a computer engineer. " I made this promise to not just you but also to grandma and so far I have been doing a good job in keeping that promise . I hope that god looks and takes the best care of you until once again you are re-united with us . I love you and hope that some day I can see you again. Thank you for the sign on the rose bush outside and thank you for being the one person who brought me up to be who I am today ..... I love you grandpap and don't ever forget it ........... your grand daughters Kayla and Alyissa ......
