We all have different journeys, different paths along the way, we all were meant to learn some things, but never meant to say... Our destination is a place, far greater than we know. For some the journeys quicker, for some the journeys slow. And when the journey finally ends, we'll claim a great reward. And find an everlasting peace, together with the Lord." We all love you Joe, you will be missed dearly, and always in our hearts.
