I am so sorry to hear about Joe's passing. I worked with him at the library and I would sometimes hear from him after I moved on to another job. My prayers go out to his family.

Dearest Gloria & Family
Such a Great lost for the family
A friend wrote this for him as he just lost his son last weekend. Hope your hearts heal soon
Don't Tell Me
Please don't tell me you know how I feel,
Unless you have lost your child too,
Please don't tell me my broken heart will heal,
Because that is just not true,
Please don't tell me my son is in a better place,
Though it is true, I want him here with me,
Don't tell me someday I'll hear his voice, see his face,
Beyond today I cannot see,
Don?t tell me it is time to move on,
Because I cannot,
Don?t tell me to face the fact he is gone,
Because denial is something I can't stop,
Don't tell me to be thankful for the time I had,
Because I wanted more,
Don't tell me when I am my old self you will be glad,
I'll never be as I was before,
What you can tell me is you will be here for me,
That you will listen when I talk of my child,
You can share with me my precious memories,
You can even cry with me for a while,
And please don't hesitate to say his name,
Because it is something I long to hear everyday,
Friend please realize that I can never be the same,
But if you stand by me, you may like the new person I become someday.

I started only a year ago at the Library as a custodian. I only knew Joe a little bit, but he made me feel welcome when I started, and I was shocked to hear of his passing. My condolences to his family and friends.

May all of your hearts be blessed with that Balm in Gilead, as you endure the passing of Joseph. It's said that when we experience the untimely loss of someone, who we'd consider young, that they were needed in heaven, to continue the work of the gospel there. I'm confident he's already "at work" administering to those friends and associates who have gone before.
May your souls rest in this knowledge, also knowing through faith that we will all be reunited again, through the power of the atonement. Jesus Christ broke the chains of death by His ultimate sacrifice, so we may know it is not finished and eternity promises each of us the opportunity to live with God again.
