Joey,
Happy 30th to you! Cant sleep so decided to drink a couple Heineken's in your honor , of course. So...here's to you cuz! I just know you are toasting me from where you are...a much nicer place. Keep on watching over all of us...and keep toasting us too.

Joey, this is totally true so I had to put it down here. On Saturday night, I babysat Joseph James for the first time when Rie went out for a few hours. So yeah, I was a little nervous. After I fed him and burped him, he fell asleep in my arms after making some funny baby sounds. But since I was by myself, the sounds made me very nervous because nobody was there to tell me that they were normal. Anyway, I held JJ and said to myself, "Please, just do something to make me know that everything is fine so I can calm down - sneeze, cry, do something! Joey, help me out here."

And a couple of seconds after I said this, a little smile appeared on his face as he dreamt about who knows what and I laughed and laid him down to sleep. Then, in tribute to you, I sat down and ate my Mexican food takeout and watched the NCAA tournament.

Here's another picture of Joseph James. Keep watching over him and us.

Joey,
As you know, it's been a little over 1 week since Marie gave birth to our little boy who we named Joseph James. I know you'll be watching over him as he starts his life (especially his moments on a baseball diamond) and you'll also be giving his parents strength to raise him as well as we have been raised. You can bet that as soon as he's old enough to learn and understand the world, he'll be told many stories about you and how special you were and are to both Rie and I. We spoke to your parents right after he was born and it was great to hear the happiness in their voices.

Here's the first picture of many that I'll post on this site. You'd be happy to know that right before he went to sleep in this picture, he ate. A LOT.

Hi Joey, i wrote on this website last summer and i regularly check in a read the messages. Just wanted to let you know that i was in New York in January and i went down to Ground Zero with my little boy and said a prayer for you and your family. Since i came across this website ive wanted to go to Ground Zero and i finally did it, you and your family are always in my thoughts xxxx

My name is also Joey Doyle i am sorry for your loss God Bess and i wish for the best

Just thinking about ya buddy. Just wanted to stop by and say hello to everyone, hopefully everyone had a peaceful holiday season. Miss ya man

Big JD,


Holidays are here again.

We always have you in mind.

Damn Favre !

Have a talk with him Joe

Joe,
I love Favre. His horrible game allowed me to beat the Paturzo's and get into the fantasy championship against Jimmy. Good looking out, brah. Now if you can just work some magic this weekend that would be grrreeeeaaat!!


Thanks buddy...miss you,
Bryan

Hey Joe,

I'm sorry to say it, but I am down big on Brett Favre- real big. We lost in roto b/c Favre coudn't throw for about 200 yds last night. I'm sorry, but I must turn my back on Favre.

Holidays are coming, keep us all healthy and safe for another year.

thanks

Joey, great time on Sunday and we owe it to you.

Jimmy

Hey Joe, had a great time on Sunday and it was a huge success. I didnt stop drinking till I left, which I am sure you were happy about since last year when I said I was going to stop, a mug dropped on my face...I still believe that was you telling me something... Everyone is still as close as ever and its only because of you and your unending friendship.
I miss you guy, every day. I will be thinking of you on Thursday especially, as it was always your favorite holiday.
Love always and in All ways,
Mariss

Hi Joey,
I just wanted to say that you have the greatest (and craziest!) group of friends. Your 3rd Annual Benefit went off without a hitch. Everybody had a great time. Though we never knew eachother, I feel I do because the guys make sure that you will never be forgotten. I feel as if you were there yesterday and I'm sure that you were laughing as hard as we were. Paturzo's karaoke performance was enough to hold me over for one more year until the next Football Sunday!

Joe,
Another solid outing for football Sunday. Great times all around and it was great to get everyone together. I'm sure you enjoyed some of the antics that when on throughout the day. Make sure Favre doesn't do too good tonight, I need to beat the Paturzo's in roto.
Miss you buddy!!


Bryan

The third annual JD fooball sunday is upon us and although I never had the pleasure of knowing you, just hearing stories about you makes me feel like I have. Watching your friends come together to celebrate everything you loved is one of the most amazing things I have ever been a part of... and I feel lucky for that. Keep an eye on 18 nelson avenue on sunday. I am sure you will get a few good laughs... especially when the guest bartender goes on. Lets go Packers... I am sure they will pull out a win this week because it is your special day.

Hey Joey.

Its about 11:15pm and I was checking Fantasy stats when I thought of you. I guess its your Green Bay Packers football that I've had for the last 20 years staring at me that prompted this email. Anyway, I was thinking of all our Noel Street football and baseball games (me, you, Damian, Jimmy, Denora, Augusta)and how we used to abuse Mattie T. Anyway, 5-4 White Sox in the 8th. Miss you, man.

Steve Haran

Dear family and friends of Joey Doyle

My heart and prayers go out to you. I know the pain you have, Ialso lost dear friends from Cantor Fitzgerald.

I want to commend you Mr.Doyle, for all the tireless work you have set forth to so many people sharing such valuable information.
I will remember you in my prayers. May you Mr.Doyle & Joey's Mom, family and friends find comfort.

May God Bless you.
Nikki

I met you in dc 2 years ago in regards to the march. i was happy to meet you and your wife and i use to receive updates on events, but since april, i have not received any emails. thanks for all the support through the years from your family and keep joey's memory alive. your friend and sister in Christ, Angel sister of Marsha Ratchford lost in Pentagon

hi joe...miss u

Joey,
Sorry this is so late this year. I was still out on maternity leave last week. I guess I'm just as bad as my technologically challenged husband... I had to wait till I got back to work to send this.

Regardless, you were in our thoughts and prayers on Sunday, as you are always.

Gordy and I had a baby girl, her name is Kristen. I pray every night that she is watched over by God and that angels are always with her. I know that you will be, as you are with all of us.

We love you and miss you lots!

pretty amazing stuff your family and friends are doing to keep your soul and spirit alive.
looks like the same type of Irish and Italian guys i grew up with outside Philly in a town called Manoa.
God bless all of you and always ,always keep Joey in the front
i'll drink a Bud and a taste of Jamesons'
in your honor and I'll say a Rosary for your family

Joe,

Your dad was kind enough to tell me about your pitching and the blazing fastball. Would have loved to have faced you in the batter's box.

God Bless you and your family.

Virginia Beach, VA

Hey Joe

Its me I just wanted to say Hello and let you know Im thinking about ya. Especially now because I am at a new company and one of my co-workers reminds me of you. He brakes my you know whats all day long..I miss you and I have said many prayers for your family. Hugs and kisses

JD - Ran into your "crew" last week at Boulder Creek watching opening night football. Immediately pictured you standing there next to them.

Miss you Man!

Eddie O

Joe

Sometimes it feels like everthing is so different but sometimes it feels like nothing ever changed. As you know we all think about you and never stop talking about you. Im sorry but u missed another fun summer but it would have been better if you were there. I know you would have given us some quality laughs! Watch us and protect us. Lata Brah
-gates

PS Your boy Brett is not having good times early in the season.

Joe,
Not a day went by in these last 4 years where I haven't thought of you or laughed about something that we did. Football sunday opened up and I'm sure you are not happy about the Packers. But besides that I'm sure your enjoying the Yankees struggling.

Miss you, guy


Bryan

Joe,

We had a little gathering yesterday to watch some football, throw a few down and eat some Chicken Holiday. We threw some toasts to you and I think on about the 3rd toast, the glass nobody was drinking knocked over and spilled out for you.

JD- everyone here misses you- its not only football days that you are thought of.

p.s. Sorry about the Packers!

Seems like Yesterday .
You are sorely missed .


Dad

Joey- your in my thoughts and prayers always..miss u!

Joey,
Another year has come and gone and all I can say is that the sadness and tears just don't go away. You are missed so much at this time in all of our lives...especially Jimmy and mine. We love you so very much and we are always thinking of you!
with love, Marie

Joey, it's been 4 years, and I still miss you tremendously. Time has not erased the pain. You are always in my thoughts and prayers, and you will always hold a special place in my heart. Every thought of you brings a smile to my face. Keep looking down on all of us from time to time. Miss you pal!!
Dawn

Joe,
4 Years buddy, your dearly missed by all. Another great summer at the shore. May God bless you, your family, and all your friends, watch us and protect us.

Joey - thinking of you today - miss you pal

Marco

JD - as you know, football season kicked off last night and a bunch of us got together at Boulder Creek (you'd love it there) to watch the Pats/Raiders. It's pretty strange that something that gets us all so giddy (Week 1) is landing on September 11. I think the good thing is that Football Sundays are basically a holiday with you in mind and Sunday being September 11 only magnifies that. You'll be in our thoughts all day long - more than even usual - as we watch the Packers play the Lions, a matchup of you versus your brother.

Sunday will be a tough day and it always will be but we'll be doing what you would have been doing for Football Sunday and I know you'll be with us.

Joe,

We just had the roto draft last night.

Someone had the floppy black and white notebook there (might have been Tommy Dunn) and it reminded me / us of the stats u used to keep. TERRIBLE !

You would be proud to know that we now pay a website to do it for us.

You were getting ripped off all those years not getting paid to do the stats for us ! Sorry.

P.S.

Jimmy drafted 6 backup running backs.

Paturzo drafted all the backup running backs from the Browns.

Gordon/Nick drafted 3 QB's w/ his first QB being McNabb.

Mike Mac drafted receivers that are 5 years past their prime.

Spinale drafted Marshall Faulk RB with his first pick.

I could keep going with this but I do not want to waste any more space on the tribute page.

Joe,

We all miss you.

P.S.

Tell Bandit I am sorry for taking his toy cheeseburger.

Anthony, I still have the bruises, thanks!

Joey, I thought about you on my bus commute this morning. Football season is right around the corner and I know you'll be with us at our fantasy draft, making fun of the bad picks that Paturzo makes. I'll see if I can grab a Packer or two for you. Also, I went by my parents house last night and stopped by your picture on the lawn. Still feels like yesterday that I was with you in person. I know it will always feel that way.

Was going through some old pictures.. I must have 10 yrs old. We were in front of your house and you and your Dad were teaching me how to throw a curve ball. Jimmy, being the designated catcher, suffered the brunt of pain as I fired pitch after pitch 2 feet short (on pavement)..... Your always in my thoughts.. God Bless!

Dear Joey,

I can only imagine from what I read what a kind, funny, generous person you were here. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree. You continue to be all that and some because now you have the "inside scoop" on what this life is all about.

So many qualities about you are like my brother Charley (LT. Charles Garbarini FDNY) who was with you on your journey to heaven on 9/11. I know that you are in good company with so many other good souls who died that day. Heaven must be one "hell" of a place with all the jokes,love and laughter going on. My brother is hard to stop once he gets started, just don't fall for his "What's that?" when he points to your shirt and when you look down he'll hit you in the nose. I fell for it every time!

Thanks to you we have a kind, compassionate loving man on our side,your father. I don't know what we would do without him. So many good things have come out our loss. It is just too hard to see them sometimes because of all the pain and sadness we feel without you.

Know that you are loved, thought about and missed very much and until the rest of us join the party, I ask that you watch over us and help us heal.

My name is also Joe Doyle and I am a freshman in college. While searching for me on the internet, a friend of mine told me about this website, and noted how amazing it was that a man's friends would do something like this for someone they loved. After reading about his life and his legacy, I can only hope to one day live up to his name.

I dont know you but ive just read through all your messages & you sound like a great guy who is sorely missed by all. Your family sound like wonderful pepole who obviously adored you, sweet dreams & your family are in my prayers xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Dear Joey,
I think you are my 2nd cousin, your Aunt Patty told me about this website. I am totally amazed about how much my brother Joey and you look soooo much alike, the eyes, the smile, the forehead, genetics are a strange thing huh? And from what it looks like and sounds like, from the kind words that are said about you, you and my brother seem one in the same. I'm going to tell the rest of my clan about this webite, my mother Debbie (an Italian woman that married an Irish man) just like your mom, saw the pictures and thought it was our Joey, with some hints of my brother Eddie. She said that now she knows what side of the family that my brothers got their looks from. From what it looks like you are very loved and missed, and I'm sure that you are always watching over them.
Take Care Up There
Your 2nd Cousin Michelle (Ed Braxl's 2nd daughter and Marge Braxl's (previously Doyle)-- grand-daughter)

Bill,
I suffer along with you for the loss of Joey. You and your Family will always be in my prayers. My brother-in-law Robert Alonso who lost his wife, My Sister, Janet in the WTC on 9-11. She worked for Marsh,Mcclennon. We shall never forget. God Bless you and your Family and God Bless the United States.

If you have a E-Mail list please add my name on the list.

Richard Bohlander
Brother of Janet Alonso

Joey is handsome, i also lost best friend from WTC on 82th floor as well, it awful to see these people gone already and it not fair. all my hearts go with you and all the innocent people have died.

All my prayers are with you
PS love Baseball i am NY fan lol

I did not have the privilage of meeting Joey Doyle. I also lost a son in the Trade Center, Don Robertson,Jr.,who was also a gifted H.S. and College athlete. Their lives were very similar and both ended the same day. I'm still playing softball in N.J. and one of my team-mates is Richie Vitaliano, the former baseball coach at Wagner and Joey's coach. He had nothing but high praise for Joey as a player and a person. God bless them all---We will never ever for-get them.

I know, Joe.....the Dodgers are great. I know. Heat are great.....I know.

Hey Joe, I can't believe another birthday has passed without you....We all miss you so much and know that you're looking out for us...Thanks for sending me another beautiful child...we love you...

Bryan

Hey Joey, Joey, the word is out there,"Your Birthday". I do not remember if it rained on last years birthday, but just know Joe for all the rain drops that fall today and always, that's how many times you come to my mind. Happy Birthday, Joey!!!

Happy Birthday, best-bod! Get the feeling that you're having a great birthday bash up there - just don't let that jacket out of your sight.

God Bless you and all of those that love you.

Happy Birthday Joe! Still miss you more then ever!

Love Always

Happy Birthday Joey!!!!

I think about you all the time and each memory always makes me smile.
You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Love Giuca

Happy Birthday, Joe. I'm sure you are starting it up at noon today. I'm picturing a lot of Hawaiian shirts and plenty of beer.

I was over a friends house last night who informed me of this tribute site for Joey and had to visit.Although a little younger I remember playing baseball with Joey and partying with him at D'Jai's happy hour.ALWAYS with a smile on, ALWAYS having a great time and ALWAYS the life of the party....
My condolences to the ENTIRE Doyle family.
God Bless You Joey.

Happy Birthday, Joey. And on a rainy Monday, most definitely your most hated day of all time. How great would it be to go back in time and do what we're doing in the picture above? We miss you all the time, buddy.

I REMEMBER JOE IN MY HOMEROOM FRESHMAN YEAR AT SEA.I ENJOYED ALWAYS TALKING SPORTS WITH HIM IN THE MORNING BEFORE THE LONG BORING DAY OF CLASSES STARTED.I ALSO REMEMBER HIM THROWING A NO HITTER AGAINST MY GREAT KILLS ALL STAR LITTLE LEAGUE TEAM IN 1988. MY CONDOLENCES TO THE DOYLE FAMILY. GOD BLESS YOU JOE.

saw the moive 'love dont cost a thing' last night.. so of course it sparks memories of 'cant buy me love' trivia...those were some good laughs. The movie was cute but nothing is better than Ronald McDonald Miller, not even Daniel La Russo in my opinion : )
Miss ya Joe, youre always on my mind, in my thoughts and very much close to my heart.
xoxo,
Mariss

Hey Joey: We never met, but you look like a Parrot Head to me. I'm thinking I would have found myself liking you as much as the rest of the world did. Wanted to drop by & tell you what a wonderful Dad you have. Never met him either, but it didn't stop him from offering to do for some guys in Iraq I'm pretty attached to. Seems you came by your generous spirit naturally. Look forward to meeting you one day. I know, I'm betting on the come, but.....till then, keep the party going.

I just wanted to send my condolences to the Doyle family and tell you what a wonderful tribute this site is to Joey. Joey and I went to school together from pre-school to 8th grade and I have nothing but great memories of him. He is truly a good soul and I am glad to see that his memory is being kept alive in such a nice way.

Dear Joey; After 3 years and almost 5 months I write to you to tell you how much you are miss by your parents family and friends, I can see that, in this page and in all the articles and e-mails that I received from your father, like him I also lost my beautiful Sergio that horrible day, and I am sure that both of you are together in a much better place watching over us. God bless your parents and family. Rest in peace Joey. Delia Villanueva. (Mother of FF Sergio Villanueva)

Dear Joey,

I feel I know you spiritually.

Your dad is truly one of the most giving people I know. He is a majestic human being and loves you sooooooooooo
much.

I am very impressed with your family of friends and hope to contribute, in some small way, to the Loop of Love for you.

God Bless Joey, his parents, friends and colleagues. Blessings, Rev. Faridi

What's up, Joe. Just wanted to check in and let you know that you've been in my thoughts today. Super Bowl is coming up and though I'm not sure, I bet you're rooting against Tom Brady because he seems like the type of guy you don't like. Heat are still looking good and the Dodgers made a bunch of moves, but I'm not sure I like them. Of course, you probably think they're World Series bound. Anyway, just wanted to say hello. Keep watching over us.

Joey,
I can't tell you how many times I've been through your site or how often I think of you (always). All I can say is you are a great person who only made every situation better.

God Bless you and all that love you

Merry Christmas Joe .
Finally decorated outside after three years .Your nieces loved it and we did take some photos to put on the site .
Seen many of your friends and others that remember you so well and told me so many nice things about you .That was uplifting if only for a few minutes .

Still Christmas Day will never be the same without you
Guess the pain will always be with us .
God Bless

Dad

Merry Christmas Joe!!!!
I'll be rooting for the Packers once again this year....it might be Favre's last shot...so give him some luck.

Also...im sure your loving the Dodgers backing out of the trade so the Yanks couldn't get the Big Unit!! I can just see the smirk on your face!

What a beautiful website. Mr Doyle, I am so sad that Joey was taken away from you. He looked to have been a wonderful man. I am thinking of you all at Christmas time.

Elizabeth

I read you webpage Mr Doyle my heart goe's out too Joey he served his country well know will serve the highest power in the land.

Everyone had such a great time on Sunday, of course..Its still just as amazing to me as always to look around and see how many groups of people you brought together. People who are the best of friends because they were so blessed to have called you their friend. I miss you so much, especially after nights like that.
Funniest thing happened to me while I was there, and no I am not talking about Eddie exposing himself, yet AGAIN, :) After many drinks, and I had just told myself I was going to 'shut down', I went to the ladies room and when I washed my hands and used the towel dispenser, someone must have left a mug on top of it.. WELL, the mug crashed down on my face, and yes there is quite the attractive bruise...My eyes were even a little dark underneath! Swelling is coming down .. but Joe, was that your way of telling me, dont be an idiot have a few more beers?
Little things like that have happened to me.. And ya know, it just reminds of me of how present you still are in all of our lives. I miss you guy, and I will always appreciate how lucky I am to have been able to call you my friend...

Love Always and In All Ways,
Mariss

PS: I also think of you everytime someone calls me "Ris" you were one of the very few...xoxo

joey had a great time sunday
was good to see everybody
really missed you buddy
i think i was having flash backs of manasquan and my pants fell off, you would have been proud.
joe thanks for keeping an eye on all of us,and keeping us safe we need it
miss you& talk to you soon
eddie

I saw your new picture at the tribute area on your front lawn the other day and I was happy to see it. The older picture had faded a bit and the new one is bright and clear, like our memories of you will always be.

Sorry about the Dodgers but I know you enjoyed the Lima performance. He kept pointing up at the sky - to you?

Anyway, your Football Sunday is coming up and I know you'll be there with us. And you'll see me wearing the Jets jersey with "MACPHERSON" on the back.

I love and miss you, man. Keep watching over me and all of your family and friends.

Hi Joe!!!! I havent written in a while to say hello sorry about that. You are still missed so much. I saw your memorial at S.I. Yankee stadium and felt very sad. You are such a great person with such a wonderful heart. I think about your family all the time and I pray for you and them. Are u watching all the ridiculousness of whats going on lately?? Too much!!!! Speak to you soon
Love Always your friend
Loren.

Joey
Sunday is Giants versus Packers .Only wish you were here so we could rag on each other.
Because you are not Mom and I will be going to the Pentagon Memorial Walk to remember and pray for every victim who lost their lives that day.
Son
I will never watch a Green Bay Giant game ever again because you are not watching with me although I feel your presence all the time.

God Bless You
You are sorely missed .
Love Dad
PS.Please reach out to your mother once again in your special way

Dear Family of Joey Doyle:

I want to extend my condolences to your family. I lost my husband on 9/11; he worked on the 100th floor of Tower 1, for Marsh.

Bill Doyle has done so much for our 9/11 families, has been a tireless advocate, and he is well admired in our community.

Joey, you have a great Dad!

God bless your family, and all of our families who have suffered so much.

It's not just today that we think of you...there is not a day that goes by that Joe & I do not think of you. You are missed more and more as each day passes.We love you and we will always remember you. You have a place in our hearts...always...I'm waiting for arc angel Michael..you know what I mean

You and your family are forever in our hearts and prayers. Thinking of you always, Jaime Malone and family

Joe,

You are missed and thought about all the time. Keep watching over everyone, some of the guys need it- they are crazier than ever.

p.s. We still have that dance battle to finish.

joey-
just wanted to say i miss u and think of you always.
-elaine

Joey-

joey i remeber when me and my dad met you at pizza kingdom. you were a great guy. my dad use to always bother you for working at the pizza store. i wish i could see you now bec im in the air force now .

always in my heart

As I sit in tears having seen all those wonderful pictures, I can't help but think that I was meant to view this site. I, also , lost a loved one on 9/11, My brother Patrick Hoey. He worked for the Port Authority and was in the north tower. We all lost such great and beautiful people, I know they are all together at one BIG party. Our love will never die. God bless your family and may He continue to hold us all in the palm of His Hand!! Kathleen Higgins

Hey Joe,I just wanted to say hello and tell you that I am still thinking about you and laughing about old memories back at Cantor. I miss you a lot. I have been at many different jobs since then and the people are NO one to comapre with you. You were the Best supervisor ever. Dam I wish we still worked together =/
Well Joe, I will be back to stop in and say hello. Make sure you keep looking in on me. <3

Less than 24 hours until another Vegas blowout, JD. Should I throw down a futures bet on the Dodgers? I'll pass, I think. Watch us this weekend. I know you'll be entertained.

Joey I did not know you but my husband lost his life that day. He also worked for Cantor Fitzgerald on the 104th Floor. For the first time today, I pulled up your site and thought it was unbelievably beautiful. I also want you to know that your father is doing an amazing job in your memory. He informs many many people each day of current events, things related to 9/11 and much much more. You seemed like such a great guy--one my husband probably would have enjoyed hanging out with. God Bless you and your family.
Jacqueline Gavagan

Joey, just wanted to say hello to you. I still miss you so very much. You and your family are always in my thoughts. Speak to you soon!!!

Love always your friend
Loren xoxoxo

Big JD - just wanted you to see a little of Tommy's wedding night here (lots of drinking shockingly). Also, what strings are you pulling to have the Dodgers playing like this? Hope I don't jinx it. Talk to you later.

My condolances go out too the family all can do is take one day at a time.And pray

Joey must and been a wonderful son, and he certainly has a great dad. He is helping so many people by keeping them informed after 9-11. God Bless the Doyle family.

I lost my nephew also on 9/11. Your son's site is beautiful for someone I never met yet I see all the love people had for him. The same was with my nephew Hector, a fireman, here shown sitting below me a few months before the tragedy.
God Bless.
Robert Tirado

I was in vietnam event that cannot compare want you were thinking inside that buliding struck by cowards who met too kill everyone.Joe you are in good hands and noe be watched by the best.

I just wanted to say that I read an article about Joey and his father in the Union, NJ paper and I was very moved. I am from Clifton, NJ and after 9/11, I felt compelled to join the Army to help fight what had happened. My then-fiance also joined with me and we both just returned from a 10 month deployment in Afghanistan. Furthermore, my maiden name is Doyle, so I really just wanted to say that Joey, as well as all the 9/11 victims, is in my heart, and everyday I wake up and fight for them all.

Joe
Your presence is always felt by Mom and myself I thank you for that.
Todays was most incredible as strange occurences occured all day.Your favorite teacher(like You Had one)visited after not seeing us for 20 years.A person sat next to Billy on the bus( A Muslim) on his way home from work .Billy moved and the person he sat next to worked with you and was telling Joey stories that made Billy feel proud of being your older brother.
Although we cant see you we know you are with us.And knowing this weekend was your favorite partying with your friends and starting summer thought I would drop a line .
Watch over your friends and believe me they are friends .They have not forgotten you and are always in touch.
Miss you so Much
DAD

Big JD, the summer is here and French Club is probably getting crowded right about now. I know BDunn is throwing down a few for you right now and I'll try and get down there myself soon. I can't think about the Shore without thinking about you, so I wanted to check in and say what's up.

Hey Joe,
Was just thinking of you. I wanted to let you know there is another DiStefano on the way this August, a boy. I wish you were here to meet him. All I can hope for is that he is a good man like his father, and understands how precious friendships are.
Love,
Lynne

I don't live close; I did not hear the thunder or the crash.
I didn't hear the cries for help or see the metal thrash.

I didn't witness buildings fall. This was on TV.
I didn't run from plumes of smoke. I know that wasn't me.

I didn't arrive with photo in hand looking for my wife.
I didn't tell my only son his dad has lost his life.

I didn't send my oldest child into a burning tower.
To try and save whomever he could and die within an hour

I cannot say that I was hurt while saving someone's life.
I cannot say I've ever lost a daughter, son or wife.

I do not daily pass this site where bodies still decay.
While people who must get to work must pass it everyday.

I am not brave; I do not grieve for loss beyond compare.
I know I am not a party to the death and the despair.

In some small way I'd like to say I hold you in my heart.
Although this won't amount too much I hope it is a start.

There was a part inside of me that died upon that day.
I cannot look at life the same or trust in the same way.

I look to God to give me strength, my trust is in his grace.
And deep inside within my soul, I find a peaceful place.

Joey, Just wanted to remind you that we are always thinking of you. I was thinking today about when we were young and we used to play outside and have chicken cutlets on my smurf table...me, you and jimmy. Every memory I have of you makes me smile, you always made me laugh somehow, and thats how I try to remember you.
We all miss and love you...PS- I'm looking out and waiting for Arc Angel Michael...then I'll know that you're okay. love, Jen

Hey Joey,
You know that I talk to you almost every day- in my heart, but I thought I'd try "sending you" this birthday wish!
Today is the anniversary of a very special day, the day you were born & many of us are celebrating it with happy thoughts of fun times spent with you!
I know you are also celebrating this day with a big grin & watching over us, especially your parents!
So "Happy Birthday Joey!" We all miss you so!
Always in my heart,
Love,
Vivian
