Joe.  
I just heard today that you have let us.  My heart is heavy, my friend.  You were a great influence.  You loved your family dearly and you showed a community how to embrace change.  I wish many success and blessing for your children and extended family. Your children were your milestone and I know you miss them now.  To Joe's kids and family.  I have never meant anyone who LOVED his family has much as he did. I was lucky to hear him speak of you all with nothing but love. Thank you for sharing his photos.  God Bless.

I met Joe many years ago as a vendor for hospital services.  Joe offered his testimony as a reference for my company for years after that meeting and helped my company to grow and proper.  His kind words and industry knowledge was an inspiration to my career and my company.  He will be missed.  God Bless

The kindness, generosity, and the true heart felt actions that Joe demonstrated with our team at El Rio was always above and beyond expectations. He demonstrated value, respect, honor, learning, teaching, loving, sharing, caring and so many other great characteristics. I really miss him, and know that everyone is feeling the same way.

I worked with Joe at El Dorado Hospital for 10 Years. Joe was the kindest person and always in good spirits. It was a pleasure working with him and I am sad that he is gone. I feel blessed to have known you and am glad that you are in a better place at peace.

Joe you were a true gentleman and one of a kind. It was an honor and a pleasure to know you. My deepest sympathy and heartfelt prayers to the family that love you and friends that adore you.

Joe, You were a great friend and always willing to lend a helping hand to anyone.  Your generosity, kindess and compassion will never be forgotten. You always had a great sense of humor even though you were in pain.    Nuestros mas grandes pesames a toda tu familia.

Joe, te recuerdo siempre con una sonrisa amable, descansa en paz.

Querido Joe. Los años que estuvimos lejos no hicieron más que incrementar el cariño y la admiración hacia ti. Fuiste y serás una gran persona, formada con el amor y los valores de tus padres y además con una chispa divina de la gracia de Dios que te hizo ser tan especial y recordado por todos. Gracias por tu amistad, por ser siempre tan noble y generoso. Nos encontraremos para darte un gran abrazo mi amigo querido.

Joe,
The memories of you and your Mom and Dad fill our hearts. Your smile and cheerful ways as a child lit up the room. We are honored to have counted your family as close friends. RIP Joe

Joe,
You were a true gentleman who loved and helped all,  no borders. Always in great spirits with a huge smile on you face. I never heard you complain or use your illness as a crutch, even though we all knew you were in a lot of pain. Now you are pain free my brother, I am honored to say you were a good friend of mine, always offering me good advise to keep me on a straight path. I am happy that Pop and I had the opportunity to enjoy an awesome lunch with you in the recent past. RIP my friend, RIP!!!!! We will meet again

Joe was a great coworker and wonderful person.  The family must be so proud of the man he was and relieved that he now is in the hands of God with no pain or suffering.  God Bless you all.  I have fond memories of him; especially from our Employee Events Committee and our last Foundation Gala.

Joe, I  think I speak for all of your El Dorado family when saying we truly cherished the time we had with you and will miss you terribly.  You led by example with kindness, integrity, humor and genuine concern and loyalty to those around you.  Always with a smile and encouragement every day, always with a tear for someone else who was hurting. We are so blessed to have known you and to have called you "Friend".  We all now have a special angel.

Tio, You have always been a wonderful influence on myself and my family.  Your words kept me strong and gave me so much hope. Your shared wisdom and advise will forever be remembered and used. I envied and cherished your easily shared love, support and courage. Your love and caring for me, Jeff, Anthony snd Joey will never be forgotten.  We'll miss you dearly,  pjease watch over my sons and keep them safe. I love and miss you. Now you are really the angel you have always been.

Take comfort in knowing that now you have a special guardian angel to watch over you.
