Uncle Joe was a true friend and a true representation of what Brotherhood is all about.  He will be missed tremendously and will leave a void in the Club that will not be able to be replaced

   GOD SPEED, UNCLE JOE, AND GOD BLESS

September 5, 1956 - March 23, 2010

EULOGY FOR UNCLE JOE
 

When I heard the news, I simply couldn’t believe it.

• Joe
• Uncle Joe
• Our Joe
• GONE

• We have plans. 

• Sunday Rides
• Americade
• NASCAR Races

He’s too young to leave us.

I reflected on the life that Joe lived and realized that Joe had lived a wonderful life.  A man is not judged by how much he loves, but by how much he is loved by others.  Joe was well-loved by so many people. 

Life is short, and the most important part of life is the people in it.

I know that my life was far better because of Joe’s presence in it.

I will be forever grateful to have known Joe.

I will be forever grateful for spending 20 years of my life with a friend like him.

We shared many wonderful times together and I will never forget them.

Joe will forever live in my heart …  In our hearts.

Joe is in heaven now and we are here at his memorial service.

This is not the time for us to grieve his death – he wouldn’t have wanted that. 

It’s a time to celebrate his life, his friendship.

Let’s all think back and remember how Joe touched our lives. Remember him:

• Riding his Gold Wing
• Drinking a cold Corona with lime
• Cheering for Tony Stewart

Remember him dressed in his “uniform”

• Black Sweatpants, white sneakers, a Harley T-Shirt
• Doo Rag & always wearing his Colors

Remember how good Joe was as a person.  Let’s all be thankful that we were given the chance to know a man named Joe Terrone.

We take comfort in knowing that he is in heaven right now riding his Gold Wing in the clouds.  He is happy.  Joe will be forever missed and never forgotten.   Rest in Peace, Uncle Joe.
