Dad,
I miss you so much. I still can’t believe you’re gone. I’m still in shock.
I wish you could have been here to watch my baby grow up and to call you when I needed a hand. When Natalie see’s me cry, she says Pop-Pop’s gone. She told me yesterday – don’t worry Daddy, I’ll make you feel better. That’s pretty amazing for two year olds first full sentence…huh dad? Dad, you were gone in the wink of an eye, I couldn’t say goodbye. You worked hard your whole life for us and I want you to know how thankful I am and how honored I am to be your son and bear your name. You were a great dad to us. We need to feel your presence Dad especially Mom. You will live in our hearts forever. May god bless you! We miss you so much. Love, Joe, Maria and Natalie

Dear Miriam, Joe, John, Colleen, Michael, wives and grandchildren,
Matt and I heard of the death of Joe on the same day of his funeral mass or we would've been there. What a shock it must've been to you all and our prayers are with all of you so that you may find peace in your precious moments with him. You all are a sweet family so he must've been an exceptional role model too.
Take care. Love Tiffany Henry & Matthew Bennett and families.
