Mark Jose will live in my mind and heart forever. He was one of the funniest men I have ever met. I keep my friends in stitches with repetitions of his jokes. A Master Chef (ribs, stuffed mushroom caps were 2 of my favorites), he was the family expert on clams. He could tell you where to buy them, how to steam, bake and boil them. Lucky were the clams that made it into his recipes: they were handled with love! He knew his football. I came late to the Belichik-Brady dynasty, but Mark did his best to get me up to speed. And talk about SuperBowl parties: Kraft, himself, could not have done better.
My heart goes out to my sister and my niece and to the entire Jose family. Such a huge loss. He was truly a wonderful man. As for me, in this season of giving thanks, I am grateful my sister had the good sense to marry this man thus bringing this wonderful brother-in-law into our family.

Kelly and Kaylin....please accept my heartfelt condolences. Mark was a great man and never failed to make me laugh about something every time I ran into him in town. I was honored to be part of your special day 36 years ago. It's a memory I hold dear to my heart.
Love,
