Joe,
I have one of your re-purposed note pads right here by my computer and prior to this, it always gave me a nice grin when I would use it. Now, I see it and feel so badly like I need one of your Kansas City Big Bear hugs. *I* need it because I need to give you one of my scrawny hugs back.
You have touched the hearts of many that we know of and I'm sure so many more that we don't know. It is your nature.
Reading the story of Denise's last days was amazing. I was so glad that Joe Jr got home with the fam to see you and Denise. I know he will be a good support for you.
We will continue to keep you in our prayers. I will continue to tear up as I make my grocery lists on your note pads.
Love you big guy.
Peg
