Rest In Peace Joey. I am so glad I got to spend Thanksgiving with you and your mom. And I'm glad you went to North Carolina because the last 4 months of your life were spent with your sister and mother. And you also spent time with your brother Mike. They say GOD has a plan for each of us and HE had it all planned out for you. HE has called you home where there is no sorrow, no pain. Rejoice with JESUS and your daughter for eternity. You will never be forgotten.

To the family and friends, my heartfelt sympathies go out to you during this difficult time. I hope that the promise in 1 Thessalonians 4:14 can bring comfort. Knowing that there's a hope for the ones we have lost in death can be so reassuring. May the precious memories of your dear loved one fill your heart with love and comfort today, tomorrow, and always.
