    Only today did I hear of Joe’s passing. This news indeed comes as a shock to me and my family. I’ve known Joe for about 28 years and, though we had our differences, I recall a man with a big heart and a man dedicated to his family. He is to be admired. Believe me when I say I am very sorry for this great loss to his wife, Cheryle, and all his children and family. Please accept my heartfelt condolence.

    Joanne, Sending lots and lots of hugs to you and your family during this very sad time. There really are no words that can be said when one loses someone that they love so dearly. But one thing that I can say is that he must have been a pretty amazing man to have created such a beautiful person in you Joanne. xo
