    Zia Concetta, Rosina & Mike,

    We’re so sorry to hear about Joe’s passing. He was such a wonderful man & such a great friend to my father. He was also a great support to my family. We could always count on him for anything that we needed. I still remember him driving me to the airport two days in a row (it was foggy) when Angelina live on the island & I wanted to visit her. He was so dependable and so kind.

    Our thoughts & prayers are with you.
    Rosina & Mike O’Leary
