Dear Mr & Mrs Lyman & Family

I wonder if you know how many lives were touched by your son, Joe? He and my nephew were great friends. And when anyone spoke of Joe it was always the best of things. A son that you could be/should be very proud of. Know with complete certainty that Joe is now and will forever be greatly and deeply missed by so many.

Mr.and Mrs. Lyman and Family

We would like to extend our condolences in the loss of your son Joe. We got to know Joe through our son Aaron and found him to be a wonderful young man with a big heart and personality to match. He always had a smile to see us and that smile and happiness seemed to be contagious when we were around him. A verse that has helped us is "If thou art in a night of trial, think of tomorrow; cheer up thy heart with the thought of the coming of thy Lord. Be patient, for It may be all dark now, but it will soon be light; weeping may endure for a night, but "joy cometh in the morning."

You've never met us but we knew Joe, he was a very good friend of our son Scott.

Joe was just a very nice young man; he was friendly and polite, easy to talk to and had a great sense of humor. We were very fortunate to have known him and we will never forget him.

Jim, Jeanne, Jim & Jackie

I've known you and Joe for quite a long time and I was in utter shock and sadness when I heard the news. If you need anything, just let me know.

There are no words that can ease your pain, but his memory will live on in our hearts forever.

I'll always remember this past summer when me and Amber hopped the back fence for old times sake and you let me intrude on your family gathering. Thanks for making us feel welcome.

You will all be in my prayers.

With all my heart,

Laurie & Joe Perry

Jim, Jeanne, Jimmy and Jackie,

I am still sitting here in shock over the news of Joe, I can't even begin to imagine what you are going through. Please know how much Joe meant to me. I was honored to be his GodMother and thought he was a very special person.

Love to all

Here's to you, may you live to be a thousand.

Here's to me, may I live to be a thousand - minus one.

For what would life be...... with out you.

Our deepest sympathies to the families, to the friends, and to all those that were robbed of another minute, day, year or lifetime with our friend Joe.

From the Welsh family, we are sorry for your loss. God bless his soul and everyone please remember that he is with the Lord, in a much better place.

As Joe's father said, "He is with his grandfather and others that have passed before him."

God bless you Joey.
