Dearest Pam
It was such privilege to be in your wedding to Joe in 1972. We journeyed though the years as new parents and then Grandparents. I so hoped you and Joe would enjoy the retirement years together. Harold still relates the G Man story Joe told him. Lots of Love always to you and your family. XXXXOOOO

I am so saddened by Joe's passing. He was always so kind to everyone,and Ted ALWAYS looked forward to spending time with him at family gatherings. We were so blessed to have such wonderful husbands and fathers to our kids, grandfathers to our grandchildren. And so many wonderful memories. A great guy. We love you all.

I worked with Joe at the Old Bethpage Village Restoration and enjoyed working with him and especially having lunch with him. Joe could always make my day with a story or joke. I'm sorry that I will not be able to share any more time with him, I will miss him greatly. His family is in my thoughts and prayers
