Deep sadness

Joe is not doing well and probably won't be with us on this earth for too many more days. Please pray for a peaceful release for him from this body.

We know at this time that everyone who knows Joe would love to be with him at this time. We really do know that. We ask, however, that we be given a small amount of privacy to spend what little time we have left with Joe. Feel free to drop us a note or even text or email but try to limit in person visits as they have limited all visitors to immediate family.

Thank you for your understanding and for all of your prayers. Liz

  8. There are so many who are sharing this burden with you. What a testimony of the love of our savior. Grateful for the opportunity to let all of you know that you are not alone. Sorry that Joe must will not be with us to love on earth, but he knows we are all here when it counts the most. Grateful to know the plan of salvation and that we will all be together again!!!!! Love to all of you! Thank you for allowing us to be "inside" and to share the good with the bad so that we may all remember to love one another through thick and this. We all need it one time or another. No one is perfect, but the Lord loves us unconditionally. Thanks for sharing Joe with us to love! We love you all! The Brown's
