Re: Joe passed on this evening
I am so sorry to hear about Joe's passing. He was truly a saint. I feel that Joe's passing will inspire the HER2 community to finish what Joe started. My prayers go out to Joe, his family, and the whole HER2 community.

Re: Joe passed on this evening
I cannot believe what I am reading. Joe...our Joe? Joe and this website have been a life saver for so many people and now we learn that he has passed away from the same disease he had helped us to battle, in countless ways. I am so very sorry. Joe's family was blessed with a one in a million husband/father and more. Praying for comfort and strength for all of you during this very sad time.
