My heart breaks for you, Linda, on the loss of Joe and I wish there were something I could say or do that would make things better. At the very least, I know you will have lots of good memories of his kindness, compassion, love for you and many happy times together that will bring you a bit of comfort. Please call any time and let me know what I can do to help in any way.
Joe brought a smile to everyone he worked with his humility, good nature and sense of humor. I didn’t get to know him well enough in the year we worked together, but he made an impression on me and I am better for having known him. You and yours continue in my thoughts and prayers.
Word’s cannot express my deepest sympathy for you Linda. I am so sorry for the loss of your husband And BFF, Joe. You and I laugh so much together and when you introduced me to Joe, the laughter continued with him. It was always a wonderful relaxed time with you two. I didn’t know Joe for a long period but it feels like I’ve known him and you for years. I will miss him and he will always be remembered. Remember I am here, your BFF (I taught you what that means 😁).

TRAGICALLY, OUR FAMILY HAS LOST ONE OF OUR MOST SPECIAL MEMBERS. DEAR JOE WAS A DEVOTED SPOUSE TO MY SISTER AND THE SWEET BROTHER I ALWAYS WISHED I HAD AS WELL AS MY SPECIAL FRIEND. THOUGH OUR HEARTS ARE HEAVY, WE WERE EXTREMELY BLESSED TO HAVE HIM IN OUR LIVES. HE TOUCHED ALL OF US WITH HIS GENUINE KINDNESS, SINCERE INTEREST, GOLDEN HEART, AND MOST GENTLE SOUL. HE CERTAINLY MADE A DIFFERENCE DURING HIS BRIEF TIME ON EARTH.
THOUGH HIS PLACE AT OUR DINNER TABLE WILL BE VACANT EVERMORE, HE'LL ALWAYS HAVE A PLACE IN OUR HEARTS. JOE, THANK YOU FOR THE LAUGHTER, MEANINGFUL CONVERSATIONS, AND BEING AN EXEMPLARY EXAMPLE OF A LIFE WELL-LIVED. LINDA, THANK YOU FOR BRINGING HIM IN TO OUR LIVES AS A TREASURED FAMILY MEMBER.
KNOWING THAT GOD NOW HAS ANOTHER SPECIAL ANGEL IN HIS CORPS HELPS EASE OUR SORROW. MAY YOUR SPIRIT FLY FREELY, DEAR JOE. PLEASE KNOW THAT YOU ARE SORELY MISSED, BUT WILL ALWAYS BE REMEMBERED. XOXO
