Not sure what to say?

So sorry to hear this. My condolences to family and friends. Joey , Great guy , Great Family and so many Great Friends.

Have loved all the Diroff's from the moment I met them in the late 70's early 80's. RIP Joey!

My Brother Joey:

Many days and nights watching the red wings and lightning in hockey and rays in baseball with Joey at memories lounge. Will never forget Joey hot dogs on Sunday's during football season as well as Joey putting the Kansas City Chiefs games on the ice machine tv at memories lounge. I think I was the first chiefs fan Joey ever met good times. Rip Joey. Joe coors

I'll miss my brother dearly every day. He was intelligent, thoughtful, funny, loving, and always on the lookout for a good time. He loved music, golfing, boating, and a good time. He had many friends and always had time to help you out. So many memories. I love you dear brother. Rest in peace.
