Standing with my her2 sisters and brothers, I, too, say THANK YOU to Joe and you his family for sharing yourselves the way you have. Joe and Christine gave of themselves so unselfishly and always with graciousness and love for others. God speaks of "not letting your left hand know what you are doing" (Matthew 6:3) reminding us that doing good deeds does not have to be announced....your Father in Heaven knows what you are doing. That was their style........it doesn't surprise me at all that Joe wouldn't want to "burden" (he would see it as a burden) others with His illness.....his way is to do for others and not want attention drawn to himself. That always came through loud and clear when reading his posts.

God's Peace and comfort to you Danielle and your precious family! May memories of the good man your father was be what brings you smiles.

Love and blessings,

Mary Jo
