Joe:

Your friendship meant the world to me. I'll miss our phone conversations. I'll miss everything about you, your smile, your wit, and especially your heart of gold. I would have never made it through "School" without you. Thank you for believing in me.

Joe has been Ralph's and my good friend for over 50 years. He was in our wedding party and he has been part of our holidays since 1964. To say he will be missed is an understatement. Joe, we will miss you and love you very much and hope you are finally without pain. To Bobby, Sherri and Domenii, our deepest and sincerest sympathies. Your uncle was well liked and loved and will truly be missed by everyone.

Love, Sharon & Ralph and The entire Poirier and Martins Family
