I have tried for six days now to find the right words to help you and your family with your devastating loss. There are none. Just know that Joe was admired and respected by more people in his young life then many people who lie to be 100. I pray for you every night

As an Old Trail and soon to be Western Reserve family, there is a bond that is shared among our group. Joe's story and legacy has impacted my life. I've followed his blog, his videos and he's been an inspiration. God bless you and may He give you strength and peace. You raised a beautiful man, and should be forever proud of the impact he's had to our community.
