I miss you Joe! The two questions we should ask ourselves: 1) Did I find Joy in my life? 2) Did I bring Joy to others? I catch myself looking through pictures of my wedding, Sun & Surf without even realizing that I´m doing it - it just happens out of habit at this point. My life without "Smiling Joe". The sound of your voice made me smile. Your Joey Smile - ever burned into my memories. It was so comforting and always helped when I was feeling a little sadder than other days. You´ve kept me laughing for over 30 years and still do even without being here physically, it´s incredible and comforting.
I think back to the times you annoyed the hell out of me for not coming down to the beach, or just come hang-out. Maybe it was your knowing smile or your contagious laugh or possibly your horrendous dance moves that we were all so blessed to watch every weekend. It was probably a combination of everything. It goes to show how awesome of a person you truly were...and still are.
I cherished every moment I was able to spend with you. And I know I am not just speaking for myself. I could honestly write forever of the memories and love I have for you but I wanted to keep this short and simple. Thank you for finding a place in your life, heart to call me your friend.. so Yes Joe..you did bring happiness - to so many. You will always be in my thoughts.. I will miss you. I hope some day when we meet again, I´ll be greeted by the smile..and you´ll vouch for me!
