My dearest Joe, it's almost a year since you passed. I miss you every day. We shared so many crazy times and I can reflect on them all over the 11 years together. I miss you and pray you're at peace.

Joe was once the true love of my life. My heart is breaking as I just learned of his passing. My prayers go out to David and the rest of the Rush family in his memory.
