Uncle Joe,
You were the best. Coming to your house to visit for the summer as a young child, I have fond memmories of the excursions you and I went on. The Good Ship Lollipop, Mt. Washington Incline, trips to fill the gum ball machines, walking and exporing the streets of Downtown Pittsburgh, something that I had never seen, and Carl's old guitar you gave me to learn on, just to name a few. I will be forever grateful to you and Aunt Lou for my love affair with Pittsburgh, my desire to go to college here, and because of it, where I met my wife, Shaney. I will miss the hell out of you. You were "My man".
To Eric, Dawn Marie, Carl John, Aunt Lou, Nina, Carley, and little Joe...My prayers and sympathies.
Love,
Duane
