I have lost one of the dearest friends ever. Joe was more than a friend to me and my late husband, but we considered him and Chris more like family. You couldn't find more loving parents & grandparents than Joe & Chris. I am so fortunate to have known Joe and will sorely miss his frequent calls of friendship. My deepest sympathy and God's blessings to Chris, Margaret and all Joe's wonderful family.
