To my father in law: It has been a priviledge and honnor knowing you for these last 22 years. Thank you for excepting me into your family and trusting me to marry Linda. I will miss the phone calls asking to help fix something in the house. But I will always be there for ma if she needs me.I always appreciated your advice and knowledge you would give me if I had a question. Through all the years I have noticed your love, respect, and devotion for ma. You showed what a great husband and father should be and I hope I can follow in your footsteps. It's not the same without you and the father in law that I grew to love and respect will be GREATLY missed. You will always be in my heart... Love, Your son in law Neal xx-oo

I never regreted one second of our 47 years together. We have 4 great daughters who put some grey hair in our heads that made us look "cute". We have 6 loving grandkids we are very lucky. Don't ever worry about me, I am strong like BULL. It my be hard in the beginning to adjust but I will get though it. Come and visit me to tell me that I am doing a great job. Any time you want to lay your head down, come to me. I will always be here for you. My heart is broken into million tiny pieces. I miss you. I love you for a million years and another million more. Thankyou for your love tender touch your hand intwined in mine. Until we meet again your most loving wife Lucille Love always and forever xoxo

To Pa, I knew from the first time I meet you in October of 1993, I knew you were a warm and caring person. You taught me a lot on how to be a good husband to Annamarie. Your love for Ma was so strong it was so beautiful I love watching the 2 of you together especially in church when you always were holding hands I thought that was so beautiful. I just want to thank you for all of the advice that you gave me on how to be a good husband. I will always remember you calling me and telling me that the Godfather was on and on Sundays saying that those Eagles stink. LOL! I will never forget you and you will always be in my heart. Love John, your son in law
Betty DePaul left a message on September 19, 2013:
Dear Lucille and Family...please accept our deepest regrets and condolences. We met Joe at Sam's club and became acquaintances. My husband and I would shop in the early morning & we so enjoyed our chats with Joe. He was a wise and very knowledgeable man but mostly a man who deeply loved his family. Whenever we'd start talking about our "kids" his face would light up...but his Lucille was his true love. I was shopping alone today and happened to ask the clerk where Joe has been...honestly...I lost it right in the store when I learned of his passing. He will be sorely missed and never forgotten. To be greeted by Joe at Sam's meant that my shopping would be a pleasant experience as he always set my mood to HAPPY. I feel blessed to have known him & feel I know you as well, Lucille, as Joe spoke of you so often. May our dear Lord lighten your heavy heart...and may you sweetly dwell in joyful memories of your Joe. Respectfully...Betty & Frank DePaul
