Dude, sorry for the loss of your friend, but seriously...where did all that come from? Why don't we care? The Press didn't have his wallet, so maybe someone got the number wrong. And if you have a problem with the police, take that elsewhere.

State police confirmed this morning Joseph Cohen was 62. I am sorry about the error. I am sorry for your loss.

You should not post his address as burglars look through the papers for easy targets.
Sorry for your loss.

Have to agree with reader (your mom) Please do try to get information correct when you post. I am a first responder and have the unfortunate job of trying to get everyone out of vechicale so they can be treated. A greaveing friend or relitive must understand some information is second hand. I am sure this man was a good guy and i know he did not suffer at the end. Please make your stand know and Please Wear Seatbelts when driveing they really do help.

My sympathies for the loss of your friend (your mom). I understand grief & that sometimes getting angry (even if it was misguided) helps us get our emotions out. I'm sure the age typo was just an honest mistake (look at all the errors there were in the media after the Sandy Hook school shooting-they printed/aired the wrong brothers name for hours as the perpetrator ). I hope your friend rests in peace & that you continue to remember the good memories you have of him.

I'm sorry for your loss, & am praying for all his family & friends. I don't think it was intentional for anyone to misprint his age. I understand a loss of a loved one brings a lot of emotions, but nobody said they didn't care. He is a human being & any other human being care about the loss of someone whether we knew them or not. We have all lost loved ones & know how much it makes your heart hurt so in sure no one meant to make you feel as his death doesn't matter. There is no need for your hostility towards the police, you need to remember they were most likely the 1st ones there trying to save your friend. A think we all need to be thankful to all 1st responders as they put their lives on the line all the time to help save others. Again I'm very sorry for your loss & my prayers are with you.
& I how you can feel peace in your heartI'm I'm
