I will forever be grateful that my uncle Joe introduced me to the world of boxing. He loved to watch boxing when the movie Rocky came out. He was so excited to go see it. I will miss you always uncle Joe.

I remember when I went over to Melissa’s, Mr. Joe kept telling me I looked like my mom (Danielle Munoz). It was genuinely so funny to me—until I told him I was her daughter.

That’s one memory I’ll always hold onto, but my favorite and most unforgettable moment with Mr. Joe was when I made him a sandwich, got him a soda, and his favorite chips—Cheeto Puffs. The day I went to visit Mr. Joe in the hospital, Melissa and I grabbed some snacks and went back to his room. At one point, he reached his hand out, and I assumed he wanted one, just like the rest of his family did. But he said, “No, I just wanted to say thank you for making my sandwich.”

I genuinely wanted to cry. I had completely forgotten about that day, but I’m so grateful he reminded me. It’s a memory I’ll never forget. ♥️
