Uncle Joe, you have always been one of the most sweet and gentle men I have ever known. You made a hugh impression on me in my early childhood years. I didn't get out to see you much in the last little while. I know you didn't mind and couldn't remember anyway. I wanted my last memories to be of the man I remembered that was lively and full of laughter, not of someone who didn't recognize me. I Love You Uncle Joe. Tell Moma, Aunt Ruth, Tony, Jimmy, Donnie and the rest of the family hello for me and you are all in my heart forever.
