This is my sister Tina's son.
Joe is my nephew, but I love him like he was my son. Joe's father was unable
to be around when Joe was growing up, so I tried my best to fill in. He
has made me very proud on many occasions. From the day he learned how to
walk, to Graduating High School, to winning first place overall in the
Iron Man Body Building Competition in Stillwater, Ok. But, I think my most
proudest moment was when he asked me to be his best man at his wedding.
Joe is now a Marine stationed in Okinawa. He has been gone for almost a
year now and I miss him very much.
