Hey Dad!
I just read my note to you back in '07. I guess I was pretty shaken up by your passing. Now that Mom is with you I feel a new sense of love and protective light over our family and friends! Thanks to all who post here in honor of Joe ♥
I love you!! Thank you for watching over us. My buddy!

Hey buddy! I am so glad you are home and out of the pain you were in. You made me what I am today and I love you with all my heart. I wish I could see where you are now and who you are with and what you are doing. That day will come for all of us. I haven`t really cried or morned your loss yet and I have to admit I`m a little scared but something way deep inside tells me not to weep, cry or feel sorry for myself. I think that`s all it is man. It`s not like I don`t miss you I just can`t justify sobbing to myself. Different things make me cry now like concern from a friend or seeing something of yours but right now everyone is like in a little turmoil. Mom really needs you now so if you could help her let go of the physical and hook up to you spiritually it will help her heal. I`m really not morning your physical death right now. I hope I don`t have to. I can feel you right next to me all the time so why cry? I guess I`ll find out in a minute :) This is SO not goodbye dad. I can`t do that. So I`ll catch you in a minute. Love Joey.

To the family of Mr. Vitale...i am truly sorry for you loss. Yet, rejoice because he is free now. It has been 2 years since our father left us; and yet he is still ever present. He shows us all the time; especially to his grandchildren and our mother is comforted. Mr. Vitale has earned the crown of life. "Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints-Let everything that has breath praise the Lord"-With deepest respect.

Dear Dena, Debbie, Cindy, Paula and Joey- I am so sorry for the loss of our husband and father. When I saw the name "Cheech" it reminded me of when I used to come to your house as a young girl and I can still hear your mom calling your dad by that name. It seems like yesterday. I know you will miss him as I miss my mom, but, I know that he is looking down on all of you and will take care of you! Love, Valjean

Hi Dad...you always said how proud you were of us. I can`t begin to tell you how very proud I am of you and the exemplary life you led on this earth. You have touched so many people by your kind, loving, honest and non-judgmental example. You walked the walk and talked the talk...just like you taught us to do. I thank God for the time you were allowed to be with us and I cherish every memory of you. I love you and miss you terribly, but I know you are happy with the Lord. Watch over us, Dad, until we meet again. All My Love, Always...Debby

Dena,Cindy,Debbie,Joey and Paula I was so saddened to hear of your loss. It seems like only yesterday that I was in and out of your house, hearing him saying "Din Din" come sit with me. He and Dena were the first ones to come to my family when my Dad passed so many years ago. He was very much loved and will be missed by us all. I love you Cindy, and you are all in my thoughts and prayers. Love, Cindi

Cindy, My sincerest sympathy goes out to you and your Fathers loved ones. As we realize how short this lifetime is we often comlain that we don`t have enough time. I believe that your dad is a master of time, as he always had the time to brighten my time at Caesars with a "goodnight Josephine". Even as he left this physical world through his graciousness and great love for you Cindy he found the time to declare emphatically that he had the time to wait for you to have your time too. Lovingly, Patty

Hi Dad, Almost 5 months since you left us for heaven...seems like yesterday, then seems like years...very difficult, but we are all making progress..as I know you see that. I know you were there when we took your birthday cake to your men`s meeting..and thank you for being here with Mom, me and Meg on my birthday-that door shutting behind Meg was something-you always did know how to get her attention!Thank you for watching over and guiding Meg as you do..Thank you for guiding me to Dr. Bob, thru Patrick...and Sister Toni...I know you opened those doors for us to these wonderful people so that we may continue our journey here with a little more grace and understanding. Mom is really missing you and I guess you know that...you kiss her alot, you turn on her coffee pot, you even fixed that oven..didn`t you? so, what about the house? Divine timing, huh? We planted the St. Joseph statue by your fig tree...Mom really wants to move...she knows you will come with her...can you help here please and let us know what to do...I am wondering why you are not coming to me in my dreams...oh, you are..but I am not remembering..not like I used to or maybe it is not time...I guess I just want you to send me an email and tell me what to do here with the rest of my life...I know you know what I mean...help me out here and ask God to send me the clarity I desire to continue my work please...I hope you are not disapointed in me for not being able to do more...I guess I am supposed to trust more..help me with that desire.

Hi Dad, We stayed busy, as you saw, on the first anniversary of your passing. Thank you for being with mom so much and giving her so much comfort. Your energy, your love is amazing for us all to witness and be part of. I am looking forward to another `dream` visit with you, though I said the visit on Nov 10th, 7 months after you crossed over, would hold me thru eternity. I remeber it like it was yesterday and always will. Thank you for all the validation that your spirit lives on, that we will all be together again someday. Your writings are such a gift to me. Your legacy lives on, your work here on earth continues..I love you so very much and honor you for the wonderful father you were to me and continue to be in spirit. Your daughter, Cindy

Hi Dad, Well, as you know, you are a great-grandparent now. Madison is beautiful and Julie and Steve are great parents. Mom and I traveled to Denver to meet our new baby! Debby came and they took a 4 generation picture. Mom still feels you with her often. I still miss you terribly. So many changes coming in my life right now and am not sure how I have done it without you to run to, to talk to, to make everything better. Would you please come visit me again?! It would really help me. Love you forever. din-din
