While remembering Joe, I keep thinking of this teenage kid that fell in love with my niece. I wished that they had met each other when they got older so they would end up together. Well, they did stay together & got married & had 2 beautiful girls. How lucky we were to have Joe become part of this family. He was such a good boy,brought up by wonderful parents,he was a great husband & a great father. I will always have the memories of our holidays spent together or any family gathering.We've had so many wonderful times, especially the Xmas Eve's at Jeannette's with Cheryl,Joe,Maria & Emily and Cindy,Jimmy,James and Ryan.Joe was taken from us much too soon.The only consolation is that he is not in pain anymore.No one should have to suffer like he did. Thank you God for the time you gave us with Joe.It wasn't enough, but it was better than not having him in our lives at all.Hopefully, he is up there with Matthew & Rich, who were also taken from us much too soon.If anyone could keep those 2 in line, it would be Joe.<br>I so wish I could be up in Massachusetts to share in this time of sadness. But don't think I'm not sharing in every tear that falls,every prayer that's being said, and every memory of Joe. I am so so sorry he is gone.<br>Cheryl,Angel Princess & Babe, I love you with all my heart.<br>Auntie Linda xo
