~Dear Josie, Joe, Cheryl and all of Joe's grand children ~
It's been many years since I stood side by side with Joe concocting mixes, fillings and syrups. He had such a preeminent enthusiasm for life, family and work. And though it has been a long time since we have seen you all, those years when I was made to feel like family will be with me forever. I hold you all with great fondness in my memories and heart. Joe will be missed, and I share your sorrow.
