Dear Uncle Joe: as I sit here working this morning I look at the time and know I should be at St. Casimirs with my husband to honor you. I feel terrible as you were my favorite Uncle on the Olen side of the family. We so wish we could be there but distance and finances make it impossible. God we love you and always will. I feel so sad today. I know the weather hasn't held well either for you, and you deserved the best bright sunshiny day. Please know we love you very much. You are in heaven with my Mom and Dad, and I'll bet you have already met up. Just be at peace. You went through enough. My Mom In Law will miss you forever too... Love always, Cath and Joe

Mary,
If it wasn't for Joe we wouldn't be married and we wouldn't have our beautiful son. Joe was a good neighbor and took good care of us. He will be missed.
