Re: Joe passed on this evening
Dear Christine, Danielle & Deborah
Your husband/father was such a forward thinker and inspiration to everyone. I did have the privledge to speak with him over the phone on a couple of occations my first years as a member of this site. Although this great web site was a gift to Christine, in reality it was a gift to us all. Thanks to Joe and Christine, I was able to connect with my Her2 family when my family at home was snug in their beds. I will be sending a donation to this site in memory of your wonderful husband/father. I am so very sorry for your heartbreaking loss. Karen
