To Amy and all of Joe's loved ones, I am so sorry to hear of your dad's passing. Although I only knew Joe for about a year, as a neighbor of my mom Evie, he was a pleasure to talk with. He had such a warm and cheerful smile. His kindness to my mom - buying her lunch - was very thoughtful.
I hope that every time you feel a "cool breeze", you feel the warmth of his love and have only good memories. My deepest condolences.
