We wish to extend our condolences for the loss of your loved one.
We have you in our thoughts and our prayers. David and Ann Marie Parrish
Dearest Janel, Joe and family, We send send our deepest condolences to you all and offer you our prayers. Mom and I are thinking of you and your family at this difficult time. Joey was just a wonderful child. I am so sorry for your loss.
The 1st memory of Joey was when we first got our puppy 2 years ago. He came over to my lawn, bright eyed and smiling, wanting to play with Zoey. He was so open and friendly that he instantly made the puppy and I feel comfortable. With meeting Joey, he gave me a wonderful gift that day. I witnessed pure innocent joy, that can only come from loving people like Joey. Our dog never liked other kids, except Joey–We’ll all miss you Joey, even Zoey.
My husband and I knew Joey indirectly as our granddaughter, Fiona Regan’s, classmate. We admired the strength and courage of Joey and his family throughout his illness. We wish all of you peaceful healing and a lifetime of beautiful memories of Joey.
Matt it only seems like yesterday that you were a little boy playing soccer with my son Matt. I’ve known you a very long time and my heart is so sad for you and your family. I know from all the posts on facebook that Joey knew how much you loved him and I know he never felt alone. Joey has forever touched all our lives and I know that doesn’t help much now. Nothing that anyone says will make things better. Try to take comfort in the days to come in knowing no more hospitals, no more needles, no more poking and prodding. Joey is free, laughing and playing with all those that have gone before us. May God be with you all and give you strength. Love to your Mom and may the Peace of God be with you all.
You all are very much in my thoughts today as you celebrate Joey’s life and mourn his passing. Joey was special, and I feel grateful to have known him. I know he was loved by many and will be deeply missed. My heart goes out to all of you.
My prayers and thoughts are with your family at this time. Fond memories of the sweet Angel family when they were a part of our Waxahachie family.
