Still Missing You~ / Cheryl~Mom To Joe~ Joe Yesterday it was 4 years since you left us on that horrible morning. I have been through holidays birthdays anniversary dates and every day without you since and this day seemed to have more of a profound impact not only on me but a lot of the people who love and miss you. Sometimes through our pain we forget the good times and forget all that we do have to be thankful for. I want you to know that today I start my day remembering you with laughter and joy the same way I felt having you as my son. I will never forget that I am a lucky woman to have had you for 19 years to still have a relationship with you although different than I ever wanted. I know that our love for one another will not fade and that we will see one another again some day. I believe that we will be together for eternity. So Joe do what you must I know you are making a difference in a way that I don't truly understand but some day will. I am proud that you are my son. You impacted the lives of many and you still are. Together we will always be. Love you forever Joe. Your MomClose

Dear Amanda,
I hope that you get this note as I have no other way to get in touch with you. I was so glad to see you had posted. I went to the site and saw the pictures of Audrina....... How beautiful she is.
I would love to talk with you. Please get in touch with me if you can. cherlynn9582000@yahoo.com thejdfoundation@yahoo.com or 876-2295
Take care of you and that wonderful gift from God.
Hi joe, its been such a long time since i have been on the internet, but today i finally get the chance! I miss you a whole lot and i still think of you very ofton, wondering how you are doing and all the progress you are making in Heaven. It's been 4 years since we lost you and i still mourn your death just as if it were yesterday. A lot has been happening in my life recently, although things are going very good. I have a fiancee whom i have been with since December 2007, and just the other day, February 15th, i gave birth to a beautiful little girl named Audrina. She will know you as "Uncle Joe", although she will never really get the chance to see or meet you, she will deffinetly be hearing all about you and how close her Mommy was with you. Audrina's pictures are on a website, www.bellababyphotography.com then u click "website", and the "Client" and then where it says password you type in 0215audrina, for all who want to see Joe's new precious niece! I really wish she were able to meet you, i know she would love you right to pieces. I pray for you a lot Joe and i ofton sob over the fact that you didnt have the chance to change your life and thrive and grow and have your own children, the thought of this makes me very upset because i know all the potential that you had. I love you joe and i hope you havent forgotton about me. I will be able to reunite with you one day in heaven... but until then, save me a place next to you babe.
I was thinking of you alot today,remember that night i was babysitting you like most nights,and we heard the straingest noise coming from the kitchen.We were so scared we hid under my bed for like 3 hours.Well it turned out to be mice that were crawling in our pipes.I just remember hiding underneath the bed with you,i think i was more scared then you were..I miss you joe,we all do..You know to go through the rest of life and know you won't see that person again untill you die..that is if you believe in that is so tough..I just wanted you to know i do think of you often,it's been 3 years now and it's still so fresh in my mind.I love you buddy..
You are not alone / Melissa Hedge (Daughter of Angel Paul W. Thomas )
Cheryl, Sometimes the pain of loosing someone you love makes you forget that you are not alone. Thank you so much for lighting a candle on my Dad's site. It brought tears to my eyes to see that other people really do care, And that I am not alone. You and your family are in my thoughts and Prayers may God Bless you all. Melissa Daughter of Angel Paul W. Thomas
When tomorrow starts without me, And I'm not there to see, If the sun should rise and find your eyes all filled with tears for me.
I wish so much you wouldn't cry The way you did today, While thinking of the many things, We didn't get to say.
I know how much you love me, As much as I love you, and each time that you think of me, I know you'll miss me too.
But when tomorrow starts without me, Please try to understand, That an angel came and called my name, And took me by the hand, and said my place was ready, In heaven far above, And that I'd have to leave behind All those I dearly love.
But as I turned to walk away, A tear fell from my eye For all my life, I'd always thought, I didn't want to die.
I had so much to live for, So much left yet to do, It seemed almost impossible, That I was leaving you.
I thought of all the yesterdays The good ones and the bad, I thought of all the love we shared, and all the fun we had.
If I could re-live yesterday Just even for a while, I'd say good-bye and kiss you And maybe see you smile.
But then I fully realized, That this could never be, For emptiness and memories, would take the place of me.
And when I thought of worldly things, I might miss come tomorrow, I thought of you, and when I did, My heart was filled with sorrow.
But when I walked through heaven's gates, I felt so much at home When God looked down and smiled at me, From His great golden throne.
He said, "This is eternity, And all I've promised you." Today your life on earth is past, But here life starts anew.
I promise no tomorrow, But today will always last, And since each day's the same way There's no longing for the past.
You have been so faithful, So trusting and so true. Though there were times You did some things You knew you shouldn't do.
But you have been forgiven And now at last you're free. So won't you come and take my hand And share my life with me?
So when tomorrow starts without me, Don't think we're far apart, For every time you think of me, I'm right here, in your heart.
Dear Joe...you are so beautiful sweet boy... please send gentle hugs and kisses to your love ones....and let them know...when the morning sun touch their face its you kissing them...when they feel the breeze on their hair..its you touching them...when a few drops of rain falls.. its you letting them know that you miss them too....and when they see the beautiful sunset so far away... but yet so near...its you telling them that you are happy and in peace....God bless you and all those that love and miss you so much...love always...irene, mommy to angel..Kayla Xavier...forever.
PS.The picture in this graphic's background its a picture of Joe and his Step-Dad Vic, They are both standing on the rocks, just by the lake.
Joe, I can imagine the big deal your mama would be making out of this day. You are missed so much in our family and loved as much. If you can can you give your mama and dad a peck on the cheek...I'm sure this is a hard day for them.
The third Christmas with you in heaven / Mom~~~~ Read >>
The third Christmas with you in heaven / Mom~~~~
Joe,
It just doesn't seem possible that you have not been here for 3 years. Sometimes I wonder just how we get through without you. You impacted so many lives in such a short period of time. And I believe you are still doing work to impact lives through the rest of us that are working so hard to make a difference in this world that we live in.
I go through periods where my heart just aches for you and I do very well keeping to myself. I think of you every single day and wish you were here. Telling people that when it is my time for the Lord to take me to be with you, to know that I will be happy.
Christmas time is a time to be with family and friends and to help those in need. I think we did a good job all the way around this year and that part of it felt good. To see Vic happy because he has impacted someones life means so much to me. That in itself was a huge Christmas present for me. And then having your brothers here and Paul and Kelly, and our friends. That part was good. But underneath is always the sorrow and the pain of missing you. It just doesn't go away. I am sure it will always be there. I know that we are not alone with this. There are so many families without their loved ones. So I say well, if they can get through it, then we can as well. Not that it is easy.
I just want to say that I love you with the depth of my soul Joe. You are and will always be my baby. No matter how many years go by until we are together again. I will always mourn for you and pray for signs, and pray to dream of you so I can see that wonderful face. I will always work in memory of you to try to make a difference in this world in many ways, but mostly in the prevention of suicide.
God Bless You Honey. May God hold you close until I get there. Can't wait for that big hug that I miss so very much.
