My condolences to the family. Joe's relationship with my family spanned 3 generations. I always enjoyed our chats,and he schooled this fellow Irishmen as to how to prepare perfect corned beef,for which I will be eternally grateful.Joe and his generation were perfect examples of the values so rare today of honesty,integrity ,hard work and faith. Having known Joe,you could not walk away without being affected by his old school character and attributes. For that i am also grateful.

Thank you Joe for being so kind and patient when us gang of kids would invade your store...i cherish those memories
