Dear Joe & Family;
It has been a really long time. I'm sorry that it has taken this to bring us back together. I know that your heart is hurting but your heart is full of memories that will be with you and your kids and grandkids forever. You know it won't be long until we will all be in Heaven with her, the days are showing more signs of Jesus coming back for his children. I'm so sorry for your great loss but just know that she is now sitting at the feet of her Savior, savoring everything that Heaven has to offer. I Love You Dear Friends take care and always keep God first even in the hardest of times.
