I am so sorry for your loss. Sending love.
John and Rebecca, we are so, so sorry for your loss. Your dad was always a friendly voice on the other end of the phone when I would call my dad (Irwin) and they would inevitably be out for coffee together. He will be so missed.
Joe will be sadly missed. He was a man of integrity & kindness. Always enjoyed chats with Joe & his insights on many issues. RIP Joe.
