Its been awhile since I have written in the guest book. It doesnt mean that I dont think of you every day.
I hope you and Merv have reunited. That was one of the hardest days in my life. He was my pal.
So much going on...I hope I succeed at my new job, it is quite a change.
Your nephews are quite a bunch. Lizzy and Scarlett too. You would have had so much fun with them. Please watch over them, I worry all the time about them. I guess I will worry until the day I die. Jim and I have started going to church. Its a refreshing feeling.
Fall is almost here, at least I hope I cannot stand the humidity. It's a beautiful time of year but also and sad time, knowing that is when you left us.
Always remember how much I love you, I should have said it more when you were here and Im sorry for that.
I miss you beyond words and wish you were here to share all the good things that are happening
I love and miss you!!

What a surprise to see your smiling face in The Sun newspaper. I had no idea it was going to be in the paper. Im looking forward to the reception on 5/20. Im sure you are loving this attention.
Please watch over Tucker and Ryan, I'm so worried about them near the water. Not that John and Shannon will not watch them, but just worried.
We will be leaving Monday for our trip, I hope everything goes smoothly.
Its amazing the resemblance of you as a baby in Zac and Tucker.
I have walked into a room twice, once at my house and once in the twins bedroom and I felt a cool breeze and no windows were open...I hoping it was you.
I miss you Joe, I look at the picture in todays paper and sometimes can hardly believe your gone.
I love you!

Merry Christmas, Joe! Its hard to believe you have been gone for eight Christmas's. I miss you so much. This year doesn't seem like Christmas at all. Thank goodness for your 4 nephews and 1 niece. And soon to be another niece. You would have had so much fun with them. They are everything to me.
Please give Papa a hug for me and tell him I miss and love him.
I love you, Joe....and would do anything for just 1 more day....I think that's a country song....

Christmas was very nice this year. So glad Juju was home from the hospital. The twins and Lizzy were over. You would have had so much fun with them.
I told everyone about my reading and they were so amazed...I could tell John was tearing up.
We are going tonight to meet Jerry's son from MD.
Merv misses you, he loved his stocking from Santa. He was beyond excited to see John yesterday.
Please continue to watch over Juju.
I miss you and cant believe this was our 7th Christmas with out you.

Happy Thanksgiving. Six Thanksgivings without you, it is so hard to believe. I would have been less pre occuppied with the tasks of the day, and enjoyed dinner with us all together.
I hear Christmas carols at work and there is still a part of me that will never enjoy the holidays to the fullest. I miss Ashton and Zac so much, they do help me with the spirit of Christmas.
And now two little ones on the way, please watch over Shannon...and John too.
I miss you so much Joe.
Always and forever in my heart!
Happy Thanksgiving!!!
I would have loved to hear them say "Uncle Joey"

We celebrated your anniversary at the Buffalo Bills game.Unfortunately they did not win.
Five years have past and part of me is still in disbelief.
So much has happened in these past five years.
I'm sure you know that John and Shannon are going to have twins!! Please keep a close watch on Shannon and the babies.
I would like to write more often, but I feel when I am writing to you...it makes everything so real..I guess I'm crazy.(lol)

I know I have not written in a while, but you are in my thoughts and heart everyday.
Please watch over juju today, she is so worried about her doctors appt this afternoon.
I wish you could have seen Ashton and Zac at the wedding, they were so cute.
I cant believe it will be 5 years in a month. It will be the first time the 21st has fallen on a sunday. We will be going to the Bills game that day for you. We went to a Bills game last Sunday, it was very difficult.
I miss you so much Joe, I still think it was so unfair for you to be taken from us, but part of me knows that God chose you, because you were very special to him.
I Love You!

I remember when he was born. I was in such awe of you and your two boys, and then Joe. Nick was born a few weeks later, but I remember it being so hot that summer and I was miserable. I laid on a lawn recliner chair in the garage with a fan on me, only coming outside to look at baby Joseph and be in wonder at your wonderful family. He was so cute and so funny......Laura, I'm so sorry.

It has been four years since we have seen you. Sometimes it seems like 400 hundred years. There is not a day that doesnt go by that I do not think of you.
I remember that day so well. I thought I just wanted to die..how am I ever going to get through this.
I am better, but there is a part of me that will never be healed.

Well as you know, we finally burried your ashes on Saturday at Lakeside Cemetary in Hamburg. I think you were punishing us for waiting so long because the weather was horrible lol.
I had ivory roses for everyone except myself, Jim, your Dad and Lynn..we had red roses. Everybody brought a little momentum and put it in the vault.
We then went back to our house and had lunch and then dinner later.
I know I should have done this long time ago, but I just was not ready. It was not easy doing this Saturday either, but I felt the time had come,
Michael, Nettie and Ashton were also here, Ashton is so big and is such a good eater. You would have had such fun with him.
This Thursday I am going to a UNYTS dinner at Kleinhans with Aunt Renee and Juju. Of course pictures of you will be there.
I miss you so much Joe, I cant believe it will be 4 years in a couple of weeks.
You are on my mind and in my heart every single minute of every day.
I Love You!

Lizzie always looks at my necklace and says "Joey". You would have had so much fun with Ashton...I know you are watching him from up above, he has blond hair just like you when you were his age. And one thing for sure he has an appetite like you and of course Michael too!!

July is going to be a difficult month with your birthday aroung the corner. But having the golf tournament will definitely help. We will be seeing Erik in a few weeks, it has been a long time, way too long.
I have a new profile pic of you on FB, one of my many favorite pics.
I miss you so much, you will forever be in my heart, you are always on my mind!

I have made some progress. A couple of weeks ago I cleaned out your dresser. I put all your old socks and boxers in a bag. I really cant donate them. And today about 3 weeks later the bags have made it upstairs and I have to throw them out. I can use some of your old socks for rags. I know you are probably thinking "just throw them out and get on with it, Ma". But it is hard. My next step is taking apart your bed, which I am ok doing.
I am looking forward to making your room into my special room.
Well, the golf tournament is just about 3 weeks away. I am looking forward to it, even though I do not golf.
Lynette is a little over 8 weeks pregnant, but only 1 baby. She still needs you to watch over her. I cant imagine anyone besides Ashton, but I am excited. I just wish they lived closer.
So much going on in July. The summer will be over before you know it.
I miss you so much, I wonder what you would be doing right now if you were here with us. I remember how much you enjoyed going to the country concerts and how tan you would get in the summer. I do understand now that you were taken because you were so special and kind to everybody. And Heaven could not wait another day with out you.
I love you, Joe!!!!
