Rick, Jenn, Jeff & Beth,
I am so sorry about your Dad. He meant a lot to our whole family for many years. Sometimes we don't vocalize those thoughts until it's too late, but Joe was a big brother to all of us Mahone kids. I love all of you very much. You gave your Dad a lot to be proud of!

I love you Dad, I miss you. I don't think I can ever find the words to thank you for not only being an amazing father, but an incredible friend. You were there whenever I needed you. Words can't express what I feel right now but I hope to continue your legacy of being a good person.
Thank you to all that knew and loved my father.
