I´m sorry to hear about Brother Joseph´s passing. I knew him, when he was Brother Edmund at St. Joseph´s Convalescent Hospital in Ojai. As a 6YO, he introduced my sister, Joanna & me to golf. We learned how to putt & hit the ball, `with our head over the ball!´ I had no idea how invaluable his professional golfing tips would help me, later on in life, beyond golf. Invaluable!

He was such a patient & kind teacher & good family friend. We were fortunate to have him, as part of our extended family, "ohana". He regularly, checked in with Mom to make sure she was doing okay, when Dad was in the SNF. He also helped Mom through, during & after Dad´s eventual passing in August 2021.

I know he will be missed by our family. I will always remember his calm voice & demeanor. We appreciated his kindness, compassion & spirituality (his love for God & Humanity). He´s a rare person with a heart of gold that we were lucky to know. I feel fortunate to have known him all my life. Sending much love to his sisters & surviving family members.
