I know this time of grief is so difficult for you, and I wish that there was something I could do that could take away your pain and sorrow. Please know your all in my thoughts...and in my heart. May God's peace surround and comfort you while memories of Joe soothe your spirit. And difficult though this is, try to remember that this life is but a whisper of time until you are all reunited once again. Thinking of you with love and sympathy, especially you Keely and little Joe. Aunt Kate

Keely love,
There must have been a mighty need in heaven to call Joey from you so soon.
He was special, and wonderful and I am so sorry he could not stay longer. But thank god for the gift he left you a beautiful child so you will always have a bit of your wonderful husband to love.

I'd like to express my sympathy, thoughts and prayers to everyone who knew and loved Joe. My sister Cindy was his mother-in-law. Many times she expressed her love and respect for Joe. She was amazed that he could bring forth a home from out of the earth. Like a pioneer of old, he was that kind of a good man. A loving husband, father, son and son-in-law. He will be missed by all. But Keely when you read this, remember how much he loved you and little Joe, and as he watches over you both from Heaven, he still does.

To the Arnold / Shehane families, our thoughts and prayers are with you all. I know all too well what you all are going through. Just know that all the fond memories of Joey that you all have made as a family will keep you strong and God will see you through.
