Carol / Tony:
Not good with words especially at times like this. You both know what your Dad has meant to me. He was my boss and my friend and I will miss both. In todays world no one would ever dream that any employer employee relationship would be anything like the one I had with your Father,Mother and both of you. I will miss them. However I will never forget his advice that he passed to me from when I was 5 to beyond 50. I smile when I think of the many ways he delivered that advice to me and feel special. I am sure you both know what I mean. I feel for your loss. That is all I can think of saying at this time. Joe.

My condolences to the Mirra family. I met "Tony" when I rented his house, enjoyed many conversations with him and "Tony Jr.". Memories are passed on and live forever.
