Dear Joe, Today I found out that you are no longer with us and I cried. You were a good friend and you gave me hope and encouragement when I had none. Thank you! The world is a sadder place now that your smile and laughter are gone. You are missed by many.

Joe was my friend and attorney many years ago. I have great memories of him. He was a good friend and a good person. I remember before a court hearing once, I was very scared and he took my hand and we said an 'Our Father' together. That memory is etched in me forever. Thanks Joe..Enjoy your time in heaven.

I only met Joey a few times over the years, but I can't find anyone who matched his humor and wit, especially at family Thanksgiving dinners while giving his other cousins a hard time. Thanks, Joey, for not only the laughs and wit but your easy-going, admirable nature.
Our thoughts are with your family and friends...I am sure you will be missed beyond compare.

I'm not going to quote "The Dash Poem"- but Joe lived his "dash" to the fullest. He will be greatly missed. Vala's- you are in our hearts and prayers.

It was a pleasure working with Joe many years ago. We had a good time kidding around and listening to his stories and jokes. God be with you.
