Dear Cathy & Rose,
Joe passed on 12 years ago but will remain in my mind for as long as I live. Joe's death on the 97th anniversary of my late Mom's birth make October 4th forever memorable to me. I hope his love for you and fond memories of better times have assuaged your grief, and that this consolation has enabled you move on to the full and joyful lives that Joe wanted for you. We wish you peace of mind, and send our Love. Namaste, Jay and Noi Levenson

Dear Cathy,
I have long been out of touch with Joe, the last time being after Rose was born. We worked together in his DuPont days and became friends in that period and even considered being business partners after he left DuPont. I was transferring my address book from a PDA I was discarding and decided I needed to update Joe's address from what I had for him at Lititz, PA. So I decided to Google. Shockingly, this announcement is what I found. I am truly sorry to hear of his passing and feel totally awful that I had been out of touch for so long. Please accept my sincere sympathy. Why do all the good ones have to leave us so young?

Dear Cathy, Rose & Family,
My husband, Bruce and I are deeply saddened over the passing of Joe. He was my yoga teacher for many years and I enjoyed every class with him! What a special man, son, husband and father he was. Keep the great memories and know he is not suffereing anymore. When my husband had 2 heart attacks in one week years ago, Joe lit the candle in yoga class in honor of Bruce. I will never forget this kind gesture, and I will never forget Joe. My life is enriched from knowing him.

Cathy and Rose - Joe was such an extraordinary person and I am so glad that I got the chance to know him, if only for a short time. Rose- you are the living proof of how amazing your father truly was. My thoughts are with you both.

Dear Cathy & Rose,
We are sorry that we cannot express our condolences in person, but will do so after we return from Thailand later this month. Joe was not only my yoga guru, but also a good friend and a fine man who made much merit in his life. We will remember him and you as we visit Buddhist wats here in Thailand and Laos. We are grateful to have known Joe. Now that his suffering has ended, we pray that your healing will begin, recognizing that such a great loss will take time. With sincere sorrow, and much love to you and your family.

Cathy, Rose,Patty and Hahn Family I am so sorry for your loss. People as kind as Joe are rare on this earth. Your husband, father, sonand brother will always be etched in my fondest childhood memories.He always went out of his way to be kind to me an treat as one of the Hahn family. Looking back I realize now that this was no easy act since he was a teenager but not for your beloved Joe. He was a Saint and I am proud to have known him. May G-d the almighty make your time of mourning easier with time and you all find comfort in each other.

Aunt Betty, Uncle BIll, Bill, Linda, Mary, Ed, Patty, Tom, Ken and of course Cathy and Rose, Our hearts are heavy and sad at the loss of Joe. Although we can't be with you during this time, our thoughts, prayers and love are being sent from Denver.
I wish I could be there in person. I have such fond memories of our childhood gatherings. It is hard to imagine that a piece of this love is no longer here with us on earth. I was driving home last night from work and during my 45 minute drive I was crying and praying for comfort for you and I started to think and be comforted by two thoughts: Dad, Uncle Jack, is there with Joe and Joe is no longer suffering. We Love you all, Joyce (Hahn), Bob, Logan, Emma Coffey (Denver Colorado)
