"In everyone's life, at some time, our inner fire goes out. It is then burst into flame by an encounter with another human being. We should all be thankful for those people who rekindle the inner spirit....

We are all here on a journey through life, the paths we take are unknown until we are on them....but it is along some of these paths that we meet people that remain in our hearts and minds for the rest of our journey.....

Joe Bonnago you are one of these people........



It is these encounters Joe, with so many people that unites us together from around the globe. Your love has touched each and every one of our hearts through the keyboards that we type on...... and we hope that we all have made you feel special and loved as you so much deserve......

From around the globe....here are some things we'd like you to know.... :)


I first met you Joe playing BG on the everest ladder in Yahoo. And right from the first time we played I knew that you was a genuinely NICE man ,always funny and jolly! and evn though we often enjoyed joshing one another you never ever said anything untoward or unpleasant ! You are always good fun and nice company .Whenever i log on and I'd see your name lit on my 'friends 'list I'd smile. Thats a great thing to be able to say .....that even seeing someones name can bring a smile to your face!

There is one thing that i DONT like you for however...................and that is YOU ALWAYS BEAT ME at BG LOL. Just want to say THANKS JOE! for your friendship and all the smiles you give me and LOVE YA!!!!! you are very SPECIAL XXXXXXXXXX

From Margaret(posh_mags) in Wales UK.



Hi Joe wadda you know. Wish i was a poet, then i would find the right words to say.

Like many others, it is an honour to say that you are my friend.

You never tried it on.{wishful thinking} Just joking Joe LOLOLOL.

Seriously i always find you cheerful and a happy chappy, thank you Thank you for being my friend

Lots of hugs to you both

From Rose (penarthpc in the uk)



It seems like only yesterday when I met this crazy joe playing backgammon in Everest. Those were the good ole days! Quickly I fell in love with your sense of humor. You always knew how to get me to laugh... if it wasn't thru a knock knock joke, it was with annoying computer buzzes or funny one line insults. I think of all the times I complained to you Joe, you were always there to pick me up, never complaining once yourself.

I remember when you first convinced me to play canasta... I was chicken at first but snuck away to get hints from Paula. When we finally played, you whooped my butt more than I care to count. Man can he play!

But I really think that the most memorable thing I always think of when I think of you, Joe is the messenger wars that you and Paula would have! Thanks Joe! I love you!!

from Dawnie (Tickles4u0000 from Chester Virginia)



Well if it wasnt for you Joe there would be lots of thing i wouldnt know..... like lyrics to some very obvious and popular songs..... just loved singing the Beatles with ya that nite!!!!!

I certainly have never LOL'd as the expression describes until having "silly time" with you and thats you, Joe, being silly not me ...hehe "im never silly"

I have learnt to become very flexible bending over all the time as he whoops me at practically any thing and everything.....well except of course the jinxes.... coz i always beat you at that!

My kids love you Joe very much too as they for ages have been eating Oreo Biscuits for breakfast coz da mumma was too tired to get up :)

I now know how to speak French..... merci beaucoup!!!!!

Just one official complaint to make..... your a very bad distraction when I'm playing Canasta !!!! Best of all Joe you have really showed me how you can love someone... and myself

MORE!!

Gracias , Merci , Danke ,Grazie , Obrigado
THANK YOU Joe for brightening my life in such a wonderful way!

always MORE from Paula ( gammongirl_au / Australia )


To my buddy Joe, Who I met in Everest while he was chasing up games. You was always kind and friendly to me, and always knew how to make me laugh. I enjoyed our time together on the net, and always looked forward to chattin with you. I dont know what u look like or what your about, but what i do know, is that you always made me smile and laugh, and you always had time for me. So for that Joe, I will always remember you, and will look back on my time in Yahoo with the very best memories of you.

Thankyou for being my friend Joe, I cant ever forget ya.

from Peter (hattip2001 from Australia)



I first met you Joe, when you came crashing in on a BG game I was playing with Peter, and from that moment I knew I'd like you Joe. You are a very special and wonderful person, and you make us all feel so happy, you bring a smile to my face everytime I see your name up there.

Thank you for your treasured friendship, you made me feel so welcome in Everest, and you always, always made me cry with laughter. Have a wonderful journey. Until we meet again my friend. Love you forever more.

But I can dance it."

hmmmmmm this should be your quote Joe :) You just keep on dancing!!!



To all these friends touched by the love of Joe...please remember.............

Don't be dismayed at good-byes. A farewell is necessary before you can meet again. And meeting again, after moments or lifetimes, is certain for those who are friends.
