Dear Manny, Maria and Family:

Words can not express the sorrow that I feel for all of you on the loss of your son, brother, uncle and friend. I was shocked to read of Joe's passing.

My advice to all of you is to take one day at a time and remain a close knit family because you will need each other to lean on in the coming days, weeks and months ahead.

My Deepest Sympathy to All of You.

Tony, Manny and family,

My heartfelt sympathy to you in the loss of your brother. I didn't know him, but assuming he was much like you guys, I'dve "adopted" him as another older brother, just as I had long ago "adopted" the two of you. (You guys didn't pick on me like Jimmy and Charlie did!). You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.
