In memory of beloved Joseph84

....It's been nearly six months now since you passed away wonderful Joseph84. Not a day goes by that I think of you. Your wonderful music, incredible sense of humor, your endless generosity to other less fortunate.

In your final letter before you died, you asked, "David will you find me?" and of course that is my ultimate dream and goal.

To those who knew him and even if you didn't, he would want you to knw, [b]SEEK PEACE AND BE HAPPY!

RIP my blessed one.[/b]

I'm sorry, I think I saw him around ep. How did he die????

A rare genetic disease, Spinocerebullar Ataxia. His entire body betrayed him at the end.

@Coyotedave611: I read about that disease and it causes disability. He must have been in a wheelchair before his death. He's in a better place now. RIP. I also had a friend from ep that died from cancer. It still saddens me to think about him.

@VioletBreeze: We talked about his illness at length, he didn't really want to dwell on it, but the NOT knowing was killing me, and I think he needed to get it out in the open, we weren't religious, but both very spiritual in the way we were. This photo is from when he spent two weeks at a monestery where he studied with monks. He was ready to go at the end..."Brit" (his sister) says she swore he was smiling at his last breath. His therapy dog mourned for weeks, but Brit found another fireman and the two of them hit it off immediately so that made me happy. Joseph was the best man I have ever known in my life. We shared a "love" people don't understand. Thanks for a lovely post hon!

@Coyotedave611: That made me happy knowing he smiled at his last breath. I'm sure he saw angels around him. He was lucky to have you as a friend. Thanks
