What Joseph was like

My dad was ALWAYS there for my through my own addiction. He always would make people laugh and he would give people advice on how to stay out of their own negative thoughts and stay positive.

Fondest memories of Joseph

Some of my favorite memories of my dad is when I used to hang out in his mechanic shop all day while he fixed my car and talk about life and smoke ciggs.

How Joseph will be missed

I will miss having RECOVERY talks with my dad. He was one of the only people in my life who could understand and relate to the feelings I would go through constantly.

How Joseph will be remembered

My dad would like to be remembered at someone who worked hard, loved his family, was always happy and laughing and in good spirits.
