To Joe's entire family, first my thoughts and prayers go out to you during this most difficult time. Joe was a special friend to me for many years now and a person that I loved like a brother. He had a magnetic personality and was a pleasure to be around. My family loved Joe too and he was always a welcome guest at our home. Joe was smart, kind, funny and a very talented guy who was a true friend in every sense of the word. We could call one another no matter the time or situation to be there when you needed. Joe loved his family very much and was so excited to tell me about his little daughter which was wonderful to hear and see how much we had grown over the years. I simply can not say enough good things about Joe and it is with the heaviest of hearts that I write to send my condolences for a friend and brother. We had a bond that I could never forget in a million years. He was a one of a kind person who's friendship and imprint will stay with me forever as I know it will with many others... Rest easy Joe
