Not sure what to say?

I hadn't seen my old neighbor Joe in 15 years so today I looked him up on-line and was saddened to see that he is gone. I had wonderful times for many years with Joe at Paradise Cove and will NEVER forget his sense of humor, kindness and good advice. People like Joe come along just once in a lifetime. Until we meet again, my dear friend!

I had dinner with a friend from CSUN(we graduated 25 years ago) a few nights ago and Joe's name came up. I googled him this morning and am saddened to see that he had passed. Phyllis and Norman, good or bad, I think that every Finance major at CSUN knew your names. I am certain that his energy lives on and am blessed to have a crazy neigbhor from across the street named "Joe" who reminds me the world of your Dad!

Dear Phyllis and Norman,
We only today became aware of your father's passing last year. We remember Joe as a kind and generous person . . both in friendship and spirit. It was our pleasure to have met him. We send love and heartfelt sympathy.

Having Professor Joe as a student was a gift, having him as a friend was a blessing. Thank you Phyllis and Norman for sharing your dad with all of his extended children - his students. Joe lived life with a purpose and enjoyed its offerings everyday. From his happiness with being with students to his joy in Paradise Found, we will always love you Joe and will miss you dearly.
