For Joey

I remember Joey in Cub Scouts meeting in the music room and,later, in the cafeteria at lunch. He always had a group of friends around him aand always smiling. He was always so sweet and polite. The last time I saw him at graduation, he was so happy and proud. I know he's keeping everyone smiling in heaven, just as he did here. I'm so sorry for your loss, but I know Joey is watching over you and will be with you always in your hearts. He was a very special young man.

Johnny & Coleen & Family,
Know that you are in our hearts and prayers during this very difficult time.

Colleen, John, and family, I echo the sentiments of all those whose lives were touched by Joey. His memory will always be associated with true joy and courage. Please accept my heartfelt sympathy.
