Condolence: Dan, Lori, James, Jennifer & Jada;

Joe and I had a wonderful conversation at Matt and Meaghan's Jack and Jill a couple of months ago and I will surely treasure that evening even more now. I was pretty down as I had just gone through a huge loss and even with his struggles he was so upbeat about life that it reminded me of what really is important. I never really got to know Joe that well while we where all growing up in the same neighbourhood as I was just that much older than him but I sure remember him. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you.

Condolence: Dear Dan And Lori and family:
I was Joe's Grade 4 teacher and have also been kept informed by my mother, Jean Moore, about "The Cookie Monster". I was so sorry to hear the Joe's cancer had returned. I am sure that you had already gone through your grieving, but it is still such a blow to lose him. At least now he won't be suffering, if that is any consolation. I remember Joe as an energetic young lad, full of life. I am sure you will treasure the memories you have. I was sorry that I could not be at the funeral, but I am sure you have had much support over these difficult days.
God Bless.
Scott Moore and family

Condolence: I would like to say I'm so sorry to Joe's family for their loss. Joe was a great guy and an awesome friend. Joe was there for me as a friend when ever I was down, and we would talk for hours about life and such. Joe will be missed so much by myself and his other friends. I talked to Joe on MSN 4 days before he passed away and we had a good conversation about death and dying. I told Joe I will see him again when God says it is my turn to go to Heaven, and that seemed to make Joe happy, and it made me feel happy that I could bring some happiness to Joe in his time of need. May Joe Rest in Peace for ever. xoxo

Condolence: Dear Lori, Dan, and Family

There are no words that I can offer to ease your sorrow at losing Joe. I simply wanted to extend my deepest condolences to your family. I admired Joe's incredible determination, tenacity, and positive attitude in the face of this devastaating disease. He was a very brave young man who was taken far too soon. In these dark days it is hard to believe that you will ever feel the sun on your face again, but even though it seems we will never smile again, life eventually does come back. I hope that the love and support of your friends and family will help to ease your sorrow and that you take especially good care of yourselves. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you.

Deborah

Condolence: Lori & Dan
Someone so special can never be forgotten.
It will be the little things
that you will remember,
the quiet moments,
the smiles, the laughter.
And although it may seem
hard right now,
it will be the memories
of these little things
that help to push
away the pain
and bring the smiles
back again.

My thoughts are with you
Deb

Condolence: Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you during this difficult time. The Dietrich Family
