My deepest sympathy to Sandy and ALL of the kids. Joe had to be the most gentlest man on earth. I have looked up to him and respected his gentle soul since the first day Sandy introduced me to him. He is in a much better place now, no longer suffering and, “Yes”, one day we will all be with him again. I’m here Sandy, Kelly, Korri, David, anything I can do I’ll be there. As Korri said at the services Monday night. “We’re all family and no one can take that away from us.” You ALL have my deepest Love and Respect. Tim
