To the McGrath Family:
I've been a lifelong friend of the Hostert family and have gotten to know Joey over the years since he and Delores have been together. I only ever met your husband/ father at their wedding but I remember thinking what a nice man that he was. You have raised a wonderful son in Joey and that is a true reflection of his father and mother. My sympathies to all of you, as unfortunately, I know exactly what you are going through. May God Bless all of you and know that...

What can possibly be said about my father that has not already been said? Volumes. My father was a man of unique strength, mentally and physically.

Two of them always stood out from the rest. The first was "Use your brains over braun. Brains will be around a lot longer than your braun." I try to live out this philosophy on...

Dearest Lucille and family-My deepest sympathies for the loss of John. I only knew him through the stories and sparkle in the eye of Joey and Dolores. I'm originally from Chicago and we work together at Classic Wines. I've been to their home and we've shared some great stories and I've seen the pictures. I'm not sure if it's Louis Armstrong or not, but I know John McGrath is in the shot looking handsome as ever in his sailor suit. Joey and Dolores have it prominently displayed front...

While I never actually met John, to be the father responsible for the upbringing and guidance given to JoAnne I can only imagine how wonderful a person he was, because JoAnne is such a warm and wonderful colleague and friend.
To JoAnne and her family, my heartfelt condolences for your loss. Take the time to reflect on a lifetime of wonderful memories - that's what will help in making it through these tough times.
