Lala,Tony,Sarah,grandchildren: It is difficult for us to express the sorrow we feel at losing Joe. We will miss his brilliance, compassion, kindness and integrity. He stands for achievement as a scholar, a professional, a friend, a husband, a father and grandfather. We can never know your pain, but having lost our mother and grandmother, we know that the pain never leaves us, we just learn to live with it. Know that we are here if you need us just as Joe was always there when we needed him. Love Gela, Stalina, Carlos.
