I helped take care of Joe in his first year of life. He was a beautiful baby, perfect, and a joy to be with, as was his beautiful sister Paige. Sorry I lost contact with you all. Just discovered the information on Joe and Dan's passing. God bless their souls. Dan was a great guy. So sorry and sad. Remembering you all in my prayers.

As Joe's Dad I never even considered the possibilty that I would put Joe to his final rest. The words, thoughts, prayers, gifts, and remembrances of you all, in Illinois, Ohio, Virgina, and Kentucky, and other places has been more than moving, it has been sustaining during this terrible time. Our Family thanks you all.
