Teresa Giudice's brother Joe Gorga is missing their dad, Giacinto "Nonno" Gorga, following his passing back in April. But, the Gorga patriarch is still with him via the "wise words" he shared with The Real Housewives of New Jersey sibling over the years.

Joe shared a photo of himself with his late dad and noted, "My father used to say, 'Don't raise your voice. Improve your argument.'"

Back in June, Joe reflected more about his dad's role in his life, writing, "He was the epitome of what a real man and father should be - he sacrificed his entire life so my mother, my sister and I could have it all. I love you!"

Earlier this year, Joe opened up to The Daily Dish about some advice his dad gave him about being a parent: "The best dad advice I received was from my father. He said you can be super successful and have all the money in the world but the greatest gift in life is being a husband and a father. Family must always come first."
