TO THE FAMILY OF JOE MOCOL:
I HAVE KNOWN JOE FOR OVER 20 YEARS; HE USED TO PICK UP GLASS FROM US FOR SHERWOOD(QRS) AND AIM AUTO. I ALWAYS LOOKED FORWARD TO SEEING HIM, HE ALWAYS HAD A HUG FOR ME, AND WOULD MAKE ME LAUGH WITH HIS STORIES AND JOKES. ALTHOUGH IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME SINCE I'VE SEEN HIM, I'VE THOUGHT ABOUT HIM OFTEN.
JUST YESTERDAY WE HAD A SHIPMENT TO GO SOUTH, AND I SAID "CALL MOCOL!" IT WAS LATER IN THE DAY THAT I READ ABOUT HIS PASSING. MY CONDOLENCES TO THE WHOLE FAMILY. YOU WILL BE IN MY PRAYERS.

GOOD-BYE JOE. THANKS FOR THE LAUGHS...I WILL MISS YOU.

Dearest Jon and Mary Beth,
I am SO sorry to hear of Joe's passing. He was one of the sweetest men I knew. I remember when your mom met Joe and how in love she was with him. She just glowed when she talked about him. I know that he's in a much better place and no doubt re-united with your mom. I remember when I lost my father, there was not much anyone could say or do to make me feel better, but in time, the wonderful memories I had of my dad gave me peace and comfort. May you too find those memories to fill your hearts and ease your minds. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
