Thinking of Rachel, Seth and Caleb today on your one year anniversary Joe. Your sister-in-law.
October 25, 2015
Seth,Caleb and Rachel and to you Marilyn, my condolences to you each on the loss of your dad and brother. He is a good guy with a good heart. He was my only friend that I sat with at our high school graduation. I have a birthday card that he gave me many years ago, that still laughs when opened up. Like I told you Seth, the bamboo tree that he gave me for a birthday present a long time ago is still living, as is Joe.

What to say JP; I still can't believe you are gone. In all of my life I've never had another friend like you, so many good times - so many laughs. Tears could never fade the smile you left on my face and in my heart. Rest In Peace Partner; Heaven will never be the same!! THROTTLE ON JP

In the wind with Joe Purdy
My Friend, Confidant, and Brother,
My heart aches due to my selfishness of your absence.
We will no longer be able to call each other, see each other, or drop by at a moment's notice!
Hold up your glass with me!
HERE's TO YOU Joe Purdy
MEMORIES OF YOU
EACH TIME I SIT AND LISTEN
FOR THAT DISTANT RUMBLING ROAR
AS WE RAN UP TO THE WINDOW
WHEN YOU RODE UP TO OUR DOOR
YOU STOOD THERE IN THE SHADOWS
WITH YOUR COLORS WET WITH RAIN
TO ONCE MORE SEE...
