Dear Nancy and Family, we are sending you our very deepest sympathies. Joe was a truly a remarkable person to have borne his illness with such courage, even travelling here just a little over a year to attend Vanessa's wedding. It was never just Joe, or just Nancy, it was always "Joe and Nancy" as one, and we know he will always be with you, Nancy. May Joe rest in peace, and may all of you be comforted by good memories of him. Our love and prayers are with all of you. God bless, Dale & Tina
