Dear Doris: We never met (in fact, I never met Joe in person, either), but I knew Joe via our correspondence and through editing and writing for him for the JSA, and through reading his scholarship. He was a special soul, always trying to cultivate the talents and gifts of others. I'm sure he was a loving husband, and you must miss him very much. I am so sorry for your loss! May his memory be a blessing, and may you continue to sense his love and presence always. In sincere sympathy, Shoshana

I remember Joe's brilliant drawings. They brought me and others so much joy every time you were over with us at the Hotel. I will miss your husband's wonderful sense of humour´.

Wish you peace, and I´m here to support in any way I can during this difficult time.

With love,

Daniel

Dear Doris -
I had the honor of learning with Joe when he taught at AJR. I can't express how dear he was to me! I have one of his drawings and many wonderful email conversations. I know that his scholarship has been a blessing to all cantors, but I most treasure his wit and his kindness. His Malka Leah misses him. Yehi zichrono barukh.

My family had heard about Joe and Doris for years, but it was not until 2018 that I met Joe and Doris in person, sadly enough on the occasion of my own mother's passing. Joe and Doris embraced my brother and I, and our whole family, with joy and we all felt immediately like we had known each other our whole lives. I cherish the time I had with Joe, and still have with Doris and their children.The world was surely so much brighter and warmer because Joe was in it, and his departure and our sorrow has dimmed its brightness for awhile. Yet we were blessed to have him with us for so many years, and are so grateful for his life and spirit. Joe, we will miss you. Doris, we love you and wish you and your family comfort and healing as you grieve. May his memory be a blessing, and may he rest forever in perfect peace.

The world is diminished with Joe's passing. He added so much to those whose lives he touched - warmth, humor, and most of all love. He was always upbeat and cheering me on. I will really miss him.
