Up until 12 yrs. ago, my family lived next door to "Uncle Joe" my whole life. My mom graduated high school with Joe and he always made sure that my mother was aware of the reunion and would coax her to attend. Our family dogs would run to the fence when they saw him pull up because they knew he was going to enter his garage and emerge with a treat. It was so cute to watch. He came, with his dear friend Rosie, to say his goodbyes to my Dad when he was home with Hospice care. My father was touched more than he could say. Joe was a dear dear man and my family will always remember him with love.
