My dear sweet man, on and off for 11 years. We just seemed to work like that. We were in love but life got in our way. Wish we could have had more time together. I loved you for your huge heart. We had so much fun together, and we were great partners, friends, and lovers. You worked hard and played hard. Your love for family was your greatest asset. I will cherish our love forever. You will be in my heart forever. I love you babe. See you on the other side.

You know Big Joe was a wonderful man, and would do anything for you. I have so many funny stories I could share but I would be writing for days. My thoughts and prayers are with Sharon and the rest of the family.

I have so many stories to share. All of them were my favorite he was kind to all us kids. We would take our annual camping trip and we all arrived to see everyone pitching tents and cleaning up and getting ready for the fire and there was a corner store that used to have the best pops around and they werent much but big joe always said here you go kids make sure you guys get some for later... we would get them by the handfuls and eat them all through the camp weekend. He went canoeing and my fondest memories was in Virginia at that camp.

He was a caring person who thought of himself last. As he stayed with me and my family it didn't take long for him to become part of the family. He will be missed greatly.
