Joey was like a big brother to me back in the old days of north Baton Rouge. He has no idea how big of an influence he was in my life. He was always our guardian, our rock, our mentor, and our resident comedian.
Heaven has gained a great angel. My condolences to the family. May God grant you peace in this time of grieving.

I knew Joey as we called him and his wife Melanie for over 45 years and I don't think that you could find better people than Joey and his brothers. I am really sorry for your loss and know that as a friend I will miss him.
