Joe was a Tile specialist, a teacher, a leader and a good friend. One day Joe walked to my house and said "we need a neighborhood watch program in our subdivision and I need you to help me" So I along with another man, helped Joe get it started. We walked door to door and had seminars to get it going.
I really enjoyed all of his life experiences and stories. My biggest thrill was to have Joe come over and make contact with some possible relatives in Italy. Because I could not speak Italian, I was at a loss. Joe made the calls and I was able to establish a way to communicate with all of them. Later the following year, my brother and his wife joined my wife and me and we fulfilled our long awaited dream. The four of us went to Italy. We went on a tour, then met friends and relatives and went through my grandfathers home in a small village south of Rome. We looked at my grandfathers pictures and wandered what it would be like to visit his home now. And now because of Joe, he made this all possible. Thank you Joe. This would not have been possible without your help. You will be missed.
