We are sorry to hear of Joe's recent passing. We had alot of good times in the "old days" when Joe and Evelyn visited us in Oakland and we did the same in Santa Clara. With loving and fond memories of Joe and of course our hearts go out to Evelyn and his daughters. Sincerely, Anne Guzman and son Gary Guzman

Uncle Joe,
I will miss you so much. Even though it was a long time since we seen each other. But at least we were able to see you on your birthday. I know now that you are in a better place and you are a angel and will be looking down on all of us. At least you have peace now. Until we meet again, not too soon i will carry you with me in my heart. I love you so much! Love, Your Neice Jeri Lynn
