  1. Maureen, my heart goes out to you. I know that Joe is missed by so many. I was so thankful of his unconditional kindness to so many (and to me). He donated a branch from his son’s tree to me in memory of my son Rick Nelson. That tree grew into the most beautiful symbol of my son’s life. I was forever grateful for Joe’s donation and of his knowledge (I thought) of every subject and if he didn’t know the answer he would be determined to find it. May you hold all of his memories close to your heart. God Bless and take care. Your Compassionate Friend, Terry Cicotte (Rick Nelson’s Mom)

  2. I will always remember Joe for his support in Compassionate Friends after we lost our son.
