Joseph and Friends:

On my visits to Rhode Island in the past years, I enjoyed visting Nora with Joe.

When she was healthy and aware, she delighted me with her sense of humor. She idolized her son and he was her rock especially in the last years of her life.

Joe has a God given nature and talent to give unconditional love to both family and friends. I'm sure this is genetic.

My thoughts, respect, and prayers are with you.

Sincerely,
Jimmy Mawyer
