I'm so sorry to have been apprised of the passing of the master Christopher Joseph-
and he truly was. I will never forget our experiences and laughs at Saratoga Racetrack
and I humbly pray for his soul and that of his father Teddy. My heartfelt condolences to you all.

Sincerely,

Dear Mrs. Joseph
I just found out about Dr. Joseph's passing and was deeply saddened. I was a patient of his for many years and looked forward to seeing his smiling face everytime I came in for my eye exam. We spoke quite a bit about the grief of losing a parent which was comforting to know we had a kinship. He had such a warm and charming personality. I will truly miss him. My thoughts and prayers are with you in hopes that God will give you strength.

To Joan and Family,
I also worked with Chris at Cambridge Eye Doctors, and was extremely saddened by the news of his sudden passing.
What I remember most from a conversation we once had is how excited he was about his wine cellar. I can still picture his smiling face. I hope,as you read all these entries from friends,Joan,you will find comfort in knowing we are all thinking of
you, and that you're in our prayers.

Joan, I was so deeply saddened to hear about Chris's untimely death. He was a great guy and we had many fun times when we were kids. I'll always remember coming over to visit whenever my family was in S. Boston visiting Grandma just down the street.

All of the Kerxhalli family are feeling your loss and our thoughts are with you.
