Queen of Martyrs had strong supporters at 104th and Avers. I give to all the daughters of Joe my condolences. His legacy lives on I´m sure.

Rita,

I'll always remember your Dad smiling with that big Irish grin. He was quite a character and I know how much you'll miss him. So sorry for your loss. love, kathy

The world just became a little less interesting place. All who knew Joe will miss him (with the possible exception of a few real estate agents and the grouchy lady from Honey Fluff Donuts). Patrice, Rita, Celeste--you guys are orphans now, and I'm sure Joe would want you to stick together and look out for one another.

And if there is an afterlife, I'm sure he will be looking out for you and your families as well.

Boppa,



We will miss you so much! Your stories will be told and re-told for the rest of all of our lives. You were such a wonderful father and grandfather and man. I am so proud to have you as my grandpa.



Love you!

Katie
