My brother Joe, started writing his autobiography in September 2007 for a few months when the chemo kept him more indoors. Once his body healed some, he would be up and out the door living as much life as he could enjoy in a body that was beginning to fail him.

It is my privilege to ensure his legacy continues by transcribing his memoirs, a few of his many poems he had written into a book for his family.

A farewell gift for his Parents, his seven brothers and sisters as well as his many nieces and nephews whom all miss and love Joey.
