Im the oldest living grandchild for Joseph David Skaff! He was the strongest man ever. He was more bold and brave than anyone i know! It was a long fight, 31 years to be exact. But he never gave up. He loved all of his family with the utmost love and passion that anyone could ever love a person! He was a hero, not only to myself, but to everyone around him, I dont think i could ever be that strong! In my eyes, he was always an angel on earth, but now....hes an angel in heaven!!! I LOVE YOU...

Aunt Audrey, David, Michael & Dennis - My thoughts are with you. I have great memories of Uncle Joe, including his wonderful laugh - the one where he would lean back and smile wide. Hope your thoughts and memories are comforting you. Love, Mary Louise
