Love you Uncle Joe - I know you are in a better place now, resting painless and together once again with Aunt Carol. Family parties will never be the same without the two of you. I am happy that you don't have to suffer anymore but we are all missing you like crazy. Your sisters loved you so much and were happy they got to take care of you and spend so much time with you the past year and a half. You fought so hard and you did not lose.
P.S. How amazing you got to witness the Blackhawks with the Stanley Cup again. I will do a toast to you at the home opener and every single Hawks game I go to. Love you so much. May you rest in peace.
