Rest in Peace to a Loving Father, a Caring and Selfless Son and a Brother Who Went Over and Beyond. He LIVED TO LOVE.

May The Heavenly Father help rest your bright soul, forever to live in paradise in his great kingdom. There is no better place than wrapped in his loving arms. Like my father would always say to me “He knows The Value of Your Heart, He Sees the Greatness Inside You, and He Knows He Made a Masterpiece Within You.”

For those who didn’t know him personally, I’m going to share just a little bit about my father so you can get an idea of the kind of guy he was. I want to start off with this, My father, Joe, he loved like it was his last day on earth every day, and when i say loved, i mean LOVED. I cant begin to count the amount of times he spent helping out his family and friends with side projects or jobs, with his vast knowledge of mechanics and electrical wiring he would help anyone with anything and he did it from the kindness of his heart, never asking for anything back in return, he was just extremely happy to help… My father was a man that had such a great sense of humor, he was always laughing at his jokes, calling me his bugs bunny, saying things that some people would consider dull but I considered it filled with life. He smiled more than he got upset, and i never once saw that man shed a tear, not until his final few weeks on ? earth. Being the eldest son he always worked so hard to support his family, because from a young age of 12 he was forced to be a father figure (although i say forced, he loved every minute of it) for his mom who was new to the country and didn’t have a man with her to help support them. He was doing jobs around the block as young as 12, he always did what had to be done to help out his family. He was always fighting an uphill battle, but he was scrappy, and had a huge sense of purpose which helped guide him to have a family of his own (me 🙂 ). He helped my grandma raise her 5 other children. He was just a natural born leader and giver. He gave his life many times to help steer his brothers and sisters in the right direction. He fought for me so I would grow up on the right path. He was a man I could go on forever about. He was my hero, he was my idol, he made me a gentleman, he helped me follow my dreams, and if you knew him, he helped you follow your dreams too.

Services: An intimate family service was held at St. Louis cremation on July 27,2018. A military honorary service will be held at a future date at Jefferson Barracks.
