Not sure what to say?

Mimi and family:
Words cannot express my thoughts and feelings on Joe's passing and the loss to you and your family. He was a great man. He was kind, understanding, smart, funny and a bit of a prankster. He was special human being.
Mimi, he loved you so. You meant the world to him. The two of you were a good example of what a marriage should be. You both were lucky to find each other.
You have such great memories to fall back on.
His friends will miss him too.
To me,...

Mimi and family- I'm so, so, very sorry for your loss. Sadly he is gone, gratefully he'll not be forgotten... My thoughts are with you.

Joe was very special. He was of a kind. I will miss him.

Mimi, Danny, Christine
Joe was one of the best things in my life. Always smiling, making me feel good.
He always kept me up to date and would always tell me how happy he was with Mimi, how much he loved her. Joe was a very special man, and although he is now happy and at peace, the world and all our lives will have a big whole to fill. My thoughts, prayers and love go out to his fmily and friends.

We are so sorry for your loss, our thoughts and prayers are with you all. He was a good man, the world is an emptier place without him.

Danny, Regan, Vincent and Franco, we are so very sorry for your loss. We are sure your Father/Grandpa was an amazing man because his son, daughter-in-law and grandsons are amazing. Our love is with you all and our thoughts and prayers for you and your family at this difficult time. God bless you. From your other family, the Fiala-DeFrates-Dahlke clan.

Dad, I could not have wanted a better man to be my Father. Your love was unconditional and never ending. I have sat here the last couple of days thinking of how important you were in directing me through so many decisions. With your strength and happiness I have been able to do so much with my life. You will forever be in my heart and in my thoughts. I will always miss you, but you are now with Gram and everyone else sitting around that table enjoying the best meal laughing and catching...

Every time I had the opportunity to see my cousin Butchie, it was always so wonderful to have conversations with him. We could have talked for hours. I loved hearing all his stories about his father, the uncle I never met. He had a wonderful sense of humor and I remember how much he loved to dance when he was younger. My deepest condolences to his wife, children and grandchildren. I am sure he will forever hold a special place in all of our hearts.

It can be so hard to face the first year without your loved one, but the love of family and friends can carry you through.
