I convey the devastating news of my father Joe Pepe’s demise with you with deep regret. Our family announces his passing from this life with sad hearts, leaving a loss that will never be replaced. He’s in paradise now, with my mother again, and they will always hold hands.
When I take some time to contemplate quietly, I find that no words can truly express how I feel about the guy who was my father. He was a rock of resilience, a font of knowledge, and the epitome of unwavering love.
His legacy is a tribute to a life well-lived and a heart that touched many, not merely a compilation of recollections.
We chose to honor the depth of his life and the love he bestowed upon us even as we grieve the loss of this extraordinary person. Joe Pepe served as a friend, mentor, and inspiration in addition to being a parent.
His love will always be felt in our hearts, and his laughter will always resound in our memories. Knowing that my parents are back together and that their hug knows no bounds to space or time gives me comfort at this trying time.
Dad, your memories will be a source of strength and your love will lead us through the dark. Peace be with you, my beloved dad. I cherish you.
