Lu and Family,
I am very saddened by the loss of Joe. I considered him a great friend and one of the most respected men in Derby. His contributions to the

We were so sorry to hear of Uncle Joe's passing. He was a great man and we have fond memories of our times together which unfortunately have not been often the last years. I know that Mom and him are together now and that comforts us and I hope it will you, too. Our prayers are with you.
