Joe was such a kind, sweet & talented young man! His long friendship w/our son Nolan gave us the opportunity to get to know Joe. He always took care of us at Summer House and let me know when the pumpkin ice cream came in every fall. We love you Joe. Our hearts are broken. Condolences to your family.

Even though I only met Joseph a few times, I could tell right away he was a good person with a good kind heart. I'm certain he will be sorely missed by all the people who knew him and loved him. My DEEPEST condolences and prayers go out to his family members, friends and everyone he left behind to keep his memory alive.

On April 15, 2010 Joe joined our family at The Summer House.
During that time we got to know and cherish Joe.
We worked hard, had fun, debated (a lot), argued (a little).
He taught me much about music and the importance of laughing.
He was a dear friend who left a lasting impression on everyone around him.
We will never forget Joe for he left a lasting impression.
Our sorrow for you cannot be measured.
God Bless!

When I moved to Southwick, Joe was one of my very first friends. We lived down the street from you all and the two of us were inseparable. He was such a close friend and I remember how sad I was when you moved away. The night before you moved, Joe and I sat above the retention pond in our neighborhood. We promised we'd always be best friends, but of course that changed as life went on. He left me with so many wonderful childhood memories. I was deeply saddened when I heard the news. My family and I could not be more sorry for your loss. Our sincerest condolences.

So sorry for your loss! Please know that you are all in my prayers. I had so many conversations with Joseph over the years of cutting his hair! He always had a smile or a funny story about work or a new tattoo.I pray that you all find comfort in the wonderful memories I know you have all created together.
