Grief pulls me down, the memory of Joe pulls me up, momentarily, but grief comes back again. The "wonderfulness" of Joe wins again..., with Sorrow, and Joy, I celebrate his life,years have passed, but the memory of the Love between Lori and Joe are not forgotten; nor can they be...

Uncle JoJo was an amazing person, and for the people that got to witness him up close and personal you would be able to know how truly amazing he was. He will forever be in our hearts and in our love. His family and friends love him very much and hate that he's gone. But things will get better. R.I.P Uncle Joey <3 Jessie
