I think of you often and Its always of how important your girls were to you and how much you loved them. I know you’re still watching them and how proud you should be of the beautiful young women they’ve become with the support and love of your family. You’re missed so much and know you’re watching over, protecting and comforting (your mom, sister and the girls) all “your girls” and will one day see and hold them again.
Hugs and love, Chrissy

It is hard to believe you've been gone for seven years already!! We can still hear your voice (yes, it was a distinct voice), your laugh and your kind heart will never be forgotten! You were never afraid to sit down and have a conversation with ANYONE! You were an outgoing person who will always be remembered for loving his girls...no matter what!! There are not many people (let alone men) that would take on the responsibility of being dad AND mom and you jumped right in and never thought...

Dear Jo-Jo,
I cannot put into words how much I miss you. When I lost you, I lost a big part of myself. It’s been a long difficult road since you left. My life and the lives of everyone who loves you have forever changed. It will never be the same without you.
I’ll forever remember your wonderful sense of humor, that special twinkle in your eyes when you were up to some sort of mischief, and that smile and chuckle that lit up the room. Every age of your life brings...
