Last night, Villanova University held a moment of silence for Joe before the Marquette men’s basketball matchup. Marquette athletics will hold a moment of silence in Joe’s honor at the following athletic events over the next week:
- Friday, Feb. 14 – Marquette Women’s Lacrosse vs. Cincinnati, 1 p.m. at Valley Dome
- Friday, Feb. 14 – Marquette Women’s Basketball vs. Xavier, 7 p.m. at the Al McGuire Center

The Marquette community is grateful for the outpouring of support from those in Milwaukee and our Marquette family across the country who continue to express their love and prayers for Joe’s family, friends and colleagues.
Funeral arrangements will be shared when that information is available.
PRAYER ON THE LOSS OF A LOVED ONE
Attributed as the Quaker Prayer
We give them back to you, dear Lord,
Who gave them to us.
Yet as you did not lose them in giving,
so we have not lost them by their return.
For what is yours is ours always, if we are yours.
And life is eternal and love is immortal
And death is only a horizon.
And a horizon is nothing more
than a limit to our sight.
Additional prayer resources are available online.
