I am sad to find out about Joe’s passing but glad that we spend a few hours catching up a short time prior. It had been too long. God bless.

I'm sorry to hear of Joe's passing, Joe was always proud of his family and friends. he called me his little brother. He always had my back and made sure to tell me every time we saw each other. Joe was a very loyal and proud human being. He was always bragging about you Sherri. He was amazed at how great a mom you are with all you have had to endure. I will miss him and am deeply sorry that he passed way to soon. I'm better for knowing him. I offer my condolences to all the Fontana family....
