I remember babysitting for the Gribble children when we were youngsters living on Mohawk Road. Now we are adults, and those wonderful parents, like you father, who created our friendly neighborhood are growing old and passing on. My thoughts and prayers are with you in this sad time.

I really enjoyed working with Joe on several MYC volunteer committees; he always brought a sense of fun and professionalism to sometimes thankless tasks. I wish the best to Pat and his family. May the sorrow of this loss be partially offset by so many pleasant memories.

We never meet Joe, but we do know the McCabe family. So, we feel like we have met Joe. His legacy through Mary, Jamie, Matt and Andrew is tremendous. Our thoughts and prayers are with the entire family during this time of bereavement, as well as this time of celebrating his life.

Joe was a wonderful man who made you smile when you you said hello and left you smilling when you said good bye. He was wise, witty and charming. We will miss him. Chuck Fink and Pam Jones
