I love this family so much and it was an honor to know Mr. Notini. He always had the biggest smile when I'd see him. His love for his wife was larger than the oceans. My thoughts and prayers are with the family.

First, my condolences to family and friends of Joe. As I recall, I met Joe the first time at a Shreveport Coin Club meeting around 1992. He and George Brooks came up to me and welcomed me to their club, and the friendship was instant! Here I am just returning from an overseas assignment that lasted 10 years, and they treated me like royalty, like they had known me for ages. One of the many things I admired about Joe was he was always upbeat, no matter when you called, he was always talking about some coin deal he was cooking up for a friend. Over the years I had occasion to visit Shreveport from time to time and would always try to eat at least once at Notini's Restaurant, and early on, would catch Joe working or try and persuade him to join me for lunch at his namesake. We have lost a genuine gentleman who knew how to live life and treat others. You are one of the joys I've experienced as I travel from station to station in life. Having arrived at that final station, I know the station master is gladly welcoming you as the many who crossed your path are saying a prayer for you. RIP

The Final Salute

Brothers and Sisters in Arms, Military men and women down through the centuries, have traditionally exchanged Hand Salutes as a sign of recognition and as a way to render courtesy and respect one to another.

This Hand Salute is the last that we shall render to Joseph Notini our Brother in Arms, Fellow Legionnaire and VFW Comrade. To his family it symbolizes the love and respect that we have for Joe. To Joe it is rendered as a symbol of honor and gratitude to thank him for the devoted and selfless service he rendered to his community, state and nation during WW-II while serving in the U.S. Army and for his many years of loyal service to the American Legion and the Veterans of Foreign Wars. Joe we bid you a sad farewell. You will be dearly missed from among our ranks. Be at Ease. Rest in Peace.

On behalf of the 981 Legionnaires of Lowe-McFarlane Post 14 of the American Legion and the 158 Veterans of VFW Post 2238, we extend our sympathies and our condolences to Joe's family and loved ones.
