1 year has gone by which seems at times so slow and yet here we are one year today since Joe has passed away and I just wanted to say that "I love you" Joe. I miss you so much and still find it hard to believe you are gone. I find myself at times hearing the phone ring and wishing it were you - that somehow this was all a bad dream. As you once told me "You are one in a million and I won't find another like you" - never a truer word has been spoken. I miss your smile, warmth,advice,caring nature and so much more. May you rest in peace and know I think of you every day. Love always your Aussie Sweet - Joanne
