Joe and I were classmates back in the 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades at Cherrington Elementary. We hung out quite a bit together in those days and would, on occasion, hang out together during our high school years.
I was quite sadden at first to hear of his passing. But, I quickly realized that it’s times like these that allow us to look back fondly on the memories that were made. Hell, I can still see his mischievous grin whenever he would do something that he shouldn’t be doing. So for me, it’s more about celebrating his life than anything else. He was a good friend and great person. Mr. and Mrs Dinovo should be proud of how they raised him. Job well done to all of you and more importantly, to Joe!

My family moved into Westerville Ohio, on Electric ave, during the summer of 1976, and Joe came over and introduced himself. He was my very first friend in Westerville. Together, we played football, baseball, and basketball, rode bikes all over the neighborhood, played Atari and shot pool in the basement when it was raining outside. I’ll never forget our friendship. Joe was a very loyal friend to me, and Mr and Mrs DiNovo treated me like family. To Mr and Mrs DiNovo, and Lisa also, I am so sorry for your loss.
Love and prayers – Joe Ramirez
