Joey Vallee was about to begin his second treatment of Interleukin at Mt. Sinai hospital when the doctors determined the cancer had spread even further. Sadly Joseph Alan Vallee (Jo-Jo), age 20, lost his battle with melanoma. Joey died at Mt. Sinai on Tuesday, December 23rd.

I want to thank you for all your support over the past month or so. When we learned that Joey was sick we all pulled together and helped the Vallee family through this tragedy. Dawn and Joe have expressed how deeply appreciative they are of all our efforts. Thank you for being such wonderful and caring friends.
