As we released you to the Heavens yesterday,a Glorius Light shown from above,The Angels were singing as your journey had ended & we were surrrounded by All your Love. As days go forward know your thought of every day,as since 1981 when we began,And though the Clouds & Heaven set us apart, I now have to accept it was Yahuah's Command. But I'll be okay with that,as our un-dieing Love,His Amazing Grace kept us for this,your special day,I now know your resting in Spring Renewal in Yahuah's Arms,though for me your Spirit & Love & Memories remain as we enter,a Blossoming May. You'll never be forgotten,nor your devotion. To All the Family & Friends that I hadn't seen in years,,may Peace & Love be with you & if Joe were here right now,he would tell you to be looking up. With special scripture Prayer & his acceptance,in a dream after,,he came through the front door with a big smile on his face & said,''I made it Home' & Blessed he be & I will forever Love & Miss him dearly till we are together in new life, Much Love .

I went to school with Joe but didn´t know him that well until after Johnny and I got married. Since he was Johnny´s best friend he was around more and I got to know him better and he became a good friend to me too! I´m going to miss you Joe!

When I was a kid, I would sit in his room and watch him make model cars and then he would show me how to do it. He was the best brother I love him so much. I wish he was still here. Rest in peace. I love you.
