Hey, hey there PAL..
21 yrs ago we lost you and life changed for all of us. I didn't think that I could go on without you, but here we are, 21yrs later and I still imagine you coming through the door sometimes or I see someone at a distance and wonder if you came back in another life. Send me a sign if you get my message. Love to hear your voice again.
Happy Joe Day. Miss You

Hey, hey there Pal....
I can't believe that 16 yrs. have gone by since we last spoke. Life has been crazy at times and it sure would have been good to have you around to share all of the good times. Dad passed in July , so if you see him tell him "he did it , His Way"... I'm retired now and it seems that I'm more busy now , people think you have nothing to do when you retire, but that's not true at all.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOE
I really love you and miss you.

Hey, hey there Pal....
Another Xmas has come and gone, but not without you in our thoughts and prayers.
Tony Bastis is on his journey to meet Grace I'd really appreciate it if you might show him the way.
I found a way to put my "puter" skills to work. Started my own internet marketing business and it's taking off like crazy.$$$ wishing you were my partner in this.
Best Wishes for a peaceful journey Pal
Always my friend in life

Hey , hey there Pal...Just a line to let you know that you are remembered every day. You're in my thoughts and prayers always.Not a day goes by without something that happens that makes me think of you,maybe a country song or maybe something that is said or done that we would have shared a laugh about. I really miss those times . I am blessed to have known you.

It`s been 4 years , a long time to be without you. I miss you so very much. I still can`t believe it.
Every night I go to sleep and hope I`ll wake up and find you beside me, but every day I wake up to the nightmare that I live every day,another day without you.
I miss you so much Babe. Your eyes , your smile, your heart,your Love..You.
You have 6 grandkids now ,three boys and three girls..All of them are smart and beautiful.
I love You and Miss You....

Hey there Pal, Merry Christmas. You know, it still doesn`t sound quite right without you here to share the magic. Santa has been around occasionally ,but even he says it would be better with you here,too.I just keep thanking Santa and God for all the years that we were given to be able to spend together.Knowing you changed my life forever and for that I will always be thankful.
your Pal, chuck

Hey Joe, Just thinking of you, missing you and wishing you were around. I wish you could have been here to be with your grand daughter. I can only imagine the relationship you two could have had. She really missed out on a GREAT grandpa. Things just aren't the same without you Joe.

Hey there Pal, just stopping by to remind you that I think of you every day...Marie had a baby boy a couple of days ago , you would of been a great uncle to him. We all still miss you and I surely couldn`t have maintained any measure of sanity without your lasting influences. I love you and miss you daily. God bless.

Joe, It's still hard to not have you around. I think of you often and I can only imagine what a great grandfather you would have been to Kelsey. I think she would have stolen your heart. But, I know you watch down on us all. Things have not been the same since you've left. You are truly still loved and missed. Love,
Kim & Kelsey

Joe turned out to be a GREAT father and a much loved friend. We will all miss him. Joe was a kid at heart, and he will truly be missed. We have a lot of good memories. When you left us Joey you took a piece of our hearts with you. We all LOVED HIM in our own way. May the father of my children...
REST IN PEACE !

We can't know why somethings happen... but we can know that love and beautiful memories outlast the pain. And we can know that there's a place inside the heart where love lives always... and where nothing beautiful can ever be forgotten. If I've learned anything down the years, it's that nothing beautiful in this world is ever really lost! Those we cherish will always live on in memory!

To All of Joe's Family,
I'm so happy to have gotten to know Joe; and to be so welcome and invited into your family, home, and hearts.
He was a great guy, father, grandfather and companion.
Kathy, I can't even try to imagine the devistation of such a significant loss. I'm so thankful for everything he has done for me and for "junior". I really loved him and I wish I had the chance to give him more grandchildren. I will do all I can to repay him. I will remember him fondly forever. I love all of you.
