Your family has my sympathy. Uncle Joe was a great guy and always treated me very well. He had a wonderful sense of humor and I'm sure he's got them laughing in Heaven. He will be missed.

I will always remember ballroom dancing with Joe after Josie passed away. I know I was a poor substitute for her since I saw them dance together and they were magnificent, but I did my best and we had fun!

We all know he had a great sense of humor--sometimes he acted so silly it really made you laugh! He was such a good sport. I remember when he let me dress him up like a soldier at our Oscar Party. He was the Jude Law character in Cold Mountain. I believe he won "best costume" that year.

Joe also starred in two of Luke's movies, "The Map" and "Antique Humans", the winner of best short film at Webster College that year. You will find him listed under "Joe Moran" on IMDB.com.

Watching "Dancing With The Stars" won't be the same for Pam and me without Joe by our side.

On behalf of the whole Swyers Clan (his second family), Joe was a kind and wonderful man and we will miss him very much.
