Not sure what to say?

I have known Joe most of my life, and we will miss him. I know my dad, Paul Brown, will be happy to have his old friend once again join him in lively discussion! Our Westbury neighborhood is being well-represented in Heaven.

I met Joe through the Westbury Civic Club. He loved to talk and enjoyed relating the history of the neighborhood.

When I visited with Jeannine, Joe always made me feel I was one of the family. Thank you for sharing him with me.

Very sorry to hear about Uncle Joe. I bet he and F.C. are pontificating to each other about something right now. Bet they missed that. Most of all I'm glad he and Aunt Alice are together again. Will keep you and yours in our kindest thoughts!

Dear Judy and Joe,
Thank you for sharing your dad with us for all these years. Your mom was such a lady, and your dad never stopped missing her! I cannot tell you how much happiness your father brought to our lives. He is a dear man. We love him and will miss him greatly.

So sorry to hear that Uncle Joe passed away. Just wished the family was a lot closer than what it was! Oh well, life in the big city. Wish you and your family the best Judy, my prayers are with you.

Please accept my heartfelt sympathies.
Your family is in my thoughts and prayers.

Joe was always available to answer a question, offer advise or review a lesson plan for me. I could always turn to him and ask what may have been the dumbest questions but always got an answer without reproach.
I he missed him since I retired and moved away. But now he is free of illness and young again and with his beloved wife.

Our thoughts and prayers to the Pappas family from the Briggs family.
