Inspiration to Youth

In 1976, I was pregnant with my son and huffed and puffed my way up to the stadium to watch Joe play. My son was born in January of 1977 and it was just a few weeks later that I learned of his passing. I was shocked that he was able to play at such a high level while seriously ill and not let anyone know. Since then, I have tried to live my own personal life as he did --- I don't use my problems as a means of getting sympathy or as an excuse for mediocrity. I always strive to be the best that I can be.
