Re: Joe passed on this evening
I am so sad. I remember Joe when he and Christine visited New Jersey a few years ago. A small group of us on the Board got together at a wonderful Italian restaurant. Joe sat back and looked a little stunned while the women Her2 survivors talked, talked, then talked some more. I felt a little guilty afterward, because he didn't get much chance to say anything. I had no idea he was fighting his own battle with this rotten disease. God Bless Joe, Christine and their family.
