Please accept our deepest sympathies. We are so sorry to hear of his passing. I fondly remember Uncle Joe at the gas station and in the backyard garden and work shed. I also remember how he and Uncle Frank would play guitar together on his visits to Milwaukee. We all had such fun together. Uncle Joe will truly be missed.
Love to all the family,
