Joe,
You are now at peace and away from the pain you endured for so so long. We both miss those fun years growing up at Lake Cable, the fishing, skating, boating, beach, cherry picking, basketball, and watching Jim learn to drive a car and Jeanne how to drive the boat. May you be at peace with Our Lord.
Love, your brother, Tom

Joe, rest in peace and soar high. You will never be forgotten. Tom still talks about how you and him did all those crazy things.
