    We love you Uncle J and will miss you so much. We looked forward to seeing you every week and picking a new restaurant to eat at. Our lives will not be the same without you but we know that you are with Karen & Aunt Anna. You were one of the kindest people we knew and you would do anything for all of us. We love you and will keep your memory alive in our hearts.
