Joey I feel like its a bad dream everyday that you've been gone... I will always remember the look you gave me 3 days before you were gone, I will and do miss you so much it hurts... I will remember Late night phone calls, beach days, you waking me up with breakfast during the summer, music days, deep converstions about life, your poems to me and about life, You kept me going when days were hard and I will live for you and hopefully be with you when my time comes. I love you Joey, I will never forget you. " You are the last person on my mind, hopefully Ill dream of you, STOKED" LOL best times of my life. <3

Days at the beach, Late night phone calls, Music days, dancing, deep converstions, you waking me up every morning with breakfast for me, all your poems you made for me and about life itself. You were my men, my bestfriend, my soulmate, Now you are my Angel forever and I will never forget how much you made me a better person in everything i do. I love you Joey... Remember " You are the last person on my mind, maybe Ill dream about you... Stoked" hahhaa :) See you soon baby.

Joe- It's been more than a week since we found out and it still doesn't feel real. I thank god for last summer that we spent together almost everyday. Now I know you were meant to walk by my house on the boardwalk that day . . . Rest In Peace <3

Joey,

Man, you were such a great guy. I'm so glad I got to know you while I had the chance. My mom and I both noticed how your smile could light up the whole world. I'll miss you bud, but I'm glad to know you're in such a peaceful place now. I'll see you again someday..

Your friend,
Joel

Hi - I am so sorry for your loss. We lost our grandson, Joshua Chambers, on June 1, 2009. He would have been 25 on Monday the 8th of February. He is missed by our entire family. The pain is always there. In time, through Grief Share, we do feel better. My daughter, his mother, and his brother suffer the most. My prayers are with you.

To Joseph's family and friends,
Please know that you are all in the hearts and prayers of many people, here and elsewhere that you don't even know. We lost our only child, Jeff Cullen on August 5, 2008. My husband and I have recently taken over leadership of a grief recovery group that may be of help to you. If you are interested, please contact me.

Your son is a beautiful young man...clearly, inside and out. I am so very sorry for your loss.

You can visit Jeff's guestbook online if you'd like.

Denise Cullen, Jeff's mom
