It is with sincere and the most heartfelt sympathy that I extend to you my condolences on the loss of Joey.

Joey's passing calls to mind that life is much too short and tenuous and that we should not waste one moment of it, but should lovingly embrace the days, the people, and the memories which are the blessings of our all too short lives.

Know that you are all in my thoughts and prayers now, at this most difficut time, but know, too, that you have been in my heart throughout the years.

My sincere condolences to Joe's family, especially his Mother, and to his many, many friends. I will never forget the way he always smiled and complimented me and called me "Doll." Joe is greatly missed already, he was a terrific power of example and a very good friend of Bill's. Good bye and God Bless until we meet again. Ginger and MaryAnn will miss you very much.
