Saddened to hear of Joe's death. Always was fun to talk to him when I called to find Jeannette. So witty & nice. Glad to hear he got to see Our Cubs won the World Series! Jeannette, Micheal & family may your happy memories of Joe help you in this time of loss. God bless him & all who loved him. It was an honor to know him. RIP Big Joe...
