Good-by Joe! You leave us with grieving hearts. I learned manufacturing skills from you, I passed them on to my Polish students. Heaven will run better after you arrive. Anna and I send condolences to Georgine.
Much Love, Anna and George Steed

Uncle Bernie may you rest in peace.
Thank you for teaching me how to take pictures though, I am not as good as you were. Thank you for your wonderful patients for the million questions I had and you always had an answer. Say hi to Shadow for me. Thanks for all the great memories I love you.

In Aug of 1973 Uncle Bernard was our wedding photographer. What wonderful memories we have in our wedding pictures and of that day. Our Wedding pictures are beautiful.

I will always remember the family pictures you would take of us.Teaching my brother Paul how to develope them..And teaching me (Jackie) to play the guitar.. I was so shy and afraid to sing in front of anyone, you told me to pretend I was singing in the bathroom all by myself..and not be afraid...the many conversations with (Jeanne)Mom, & Grandma (Louise)...Now you are all together in Heaven.
