Jose Belardo III

Elaine, I just found out that Jose´ passed away and that he was battling early onset dementia. My heart is broken for you and your family. I worked with Jose´ on the Let´s Move initiative and he was such a joy. Through the years he offered great counsel to me on professional issues. I will be forever grateful for his wise words and kindness. God bless you and your loved ones. You will be in my thoughts and prayers.

My sincerest condolences to the family. I worked with José for a number of years in the Division of Research and Training Branch at the Maternal and Child Health Bureau in Rockville, Maryland. Jose was a friend and a great person to know. May he rest in heavenly peace as his memory lives on in the hearts of us who knew and loved him.

Karen, I am so very sorry for your loss. My heartfelt condolences and prayers are for you and the entire family. May God give all of you the strength and courage to get through these trying times.

You have my deepest sympathy. Jose and I worked together with the New Orleans Healthy Start Program. He was a tremendous person.

Jose worked with our Healthy Start project in New Orleans many years ago. He stood out because of his compassion and expertise. He was always willing to extend his influence and help us to solve problems. He was loved and will be missed.

It is with great sadness I am sending condolences to the Belardo Family. Jose and I attended St. Mary's Academy together. You have my deepest sympathy and prayers.
