Dear Glow family,
I send my deepest sympathies to you all at this very tragic time in you lives. Joey is truly an angel up in the heavens watching on all of us now. He was a strong & brave little fighter! Now we have one more person to pray to every night. I will always remember him! (:

Every time I saw Joey, I was impressed with how amazing he was. He accepted all that came his way with the composure of a much older person. The way he handled so much inspired me. What a very sweet and special child he was.

Dear Glow family, I am a friend of Diane Stormberg and want to convey my deepest sympathy to the whole Glow family. May Joey rest in peace. This saying is a favorite of mine:
Life is but a stopping place, a pause in what's to be, a resting place along the road to sweet eternity. We all have different journey's, different paths along the way, we all were meant to learn some things, but never meant to stay. Our destination is a place far greater than we know, for some, the journey's quicker, for some the journey's slow. And when the journey finally ends, we'll claim a great reward, and find an everlasting peace, together with the Lord.
I'll keep you all in my prayers.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

Dear Kathy and Rick: In Joey's short life, he touched so many lives including mine. I had the pleasure if sitting with him on one of his gym days while he waited for "Big Jack" (McLeay) to come. Joey was wise beyond his years and so thoughtful and witty! I will cherish that time I got to spend with him as I know you will cherish the memories you shared. May the peace of God be with all of you. Mrs. Deb Squire (TA @ St. Vincent de Paul)
