Not sure what to say?

Ten year on it seems so distant and near at the same time. How I would have loved to take a trip to "It'ly" with you and Marie and the boys so I could show you the sites. Just a bit sad today and remembering all the great times either in your kitchen or horsing around in the basement.

A great husband, a great father, a great grandfather, and to me, a great uncle. Joe and my dad always had dogs and they passed that love of animals along to me. I still remember Joe's great big German Shepherd, Tucker, and now we've got one ourselves, Bear, that's even bigger but just as sweet. Joe, Marie and the boys were anchors in my childhood and even though there is sadness there's also gratitude.

Thinking of my Uncle Joe today. I can't believe it has been 7 years since his passing. Missing his guidance and good humor.

Well, Joe, this is a farewell from your best friend. You were one of a kind, Joe. No other like you. Remember our first cruise when you were acting so strange and we couldn't figure it out only to find you had loaded yourself up with medication because you were afraid of getting sea sick and didn't want to tell anyone? How about the second cruise when you and Joe Masselli decided to go scuba diving when the sign said the boat shouldn't be going out because of the weather and the tour guide...
