Missing you a little extra today Joey. I wish you were still here every day. I wish you could´ve watched me grow up & see the person I´ve become today. You were the greatest uncle I could´ve ever asked for and wherever you are in the afterlife I hope you´re saving me a spot next to you!

We lost contact moving forward in life and grew apart. I probably spent five years trying to find you online with no luck. Things have been crazy and man was I crushed when I finally found out. Never will I forget the times with you and Tyler growing up and the laughs we shared.

My Dear Son,
Its been almost a year, and not one day goes by that I dont think of you, with tears pouring down. You are so very much missed. I wish we could had spent more time together. I treasure and remember that which we did have. I love you so much. I know you are with the angels, making them smile, no doubt, as you did us all. You, my first born son, will NEVER be far away from me. Forever looking for you in my dreams. Look over your brother, he needs you.
Love Always, and Forever

My dear, sweet, funny, talented, wonderful, loving first born son. I love you with every ounce of being. I miss you with the same. I Reminisce about things that could have been. Things that should have been. I think, and wonder so many "what if's", that its driving me crazy. I need you son. I know this is selfish of me, because you ARE in a better place. A peaceful, pain-free place. But I can't help wanting to see your beautiful smile once more. To hear your wonderful laugh just one more time. I hope you see now, just how many peoples lives you DID touch. You were loved by many, and you are missed by all. God be with you my angel. I love you so much. Please look over us all. Love always.
