Joe, 'Giuseppe'~
Taking a risk each day of your life,
on a bike ride or a battlefield,
you followed a passion or a hunch,
beating the drums and throwing a punch, or two...
You weathered the seasons & the storms, like a favorite leather satchel forever worn. . .
Some of us had a shot of Bailey's for the re-call & the shared Glories. . . For a story you could tell & tell it well, was a gift you had indeed. . .
You were generous with your 'Fantastic Life', with a stranger,
a fellow soldier, your children, your wife. . .
The Battle of the Heart & the Mind, is the Toughest of ALL. . . From early age to years onset, Life is twisted and entwined with truths & dares & ended conversations, with distant stares.
From our Hearts to yours we'll remain your famiglia evermore.
Lead on Marine, show us the way, how to handle the REST OF THIS LIFE, with you so far away. . .
Love Ya~ Rho 24'
