    The sorrow of the faithful is not that of permanent loss, but the tender sense of sadness that comes in saying good-bye for now to someone we love. May today’s sorrow give way to the peace and comfort of God’s love. Pat, Cheryl our deepest sympathy …

    I send my sincere condolences to the family. While I didn’t know Joe well, I know his son Pat and his family well, and I have learned over the last 22 years a bit about him. I have the absolute highest respect for Joe as a father, a hard worker, and a family man of integrity. He surely did a good job of raising his son Pat to be a good man, and I know Joe will be missed by many, both inside and outside of his family.

Please share your thoughts ...
