Uncle Joe,
You were one of the most kind and generous man that I have ever known. I will never forget the time that you flew my sister and I to California for the first time. Those were some of my greatest childhood memories. You always opened your home to me for the holidays. You were a great man and I have always looked up to you. I Love You and you will never be forgotten.
