JOSEPH BARNES Uncle Joe passed away January 16, 2003 peacefully in his own bed. These were his words: In the end all that really matters is family.... Pearl and Eileen....where would I have been without the two of you? You have been the centre of our family forever. Not many could do what youve done. When it came to me needing you, you were there....as always. I hope my words tell you both how special you are. Although I havent always said it...I love you both. Jimmie....youre like a son to me and I hope Ive been like a father to you. There are a lot of things left unsaid and yet we both know. Joe....my boy....Ive watched you grow from a baby, to a boy, to a beautiful young man. I will be at every game and practice from now on. Thanks for giving me what you have. To all my nieces and nephews, Debbie (Craig), Patsy (Derek), Jimmie (Orysia), Bonnie, Sherri (Cory), Little Cory, Adam, Paige, Joe, Justin, Jordan, Mandy, Megan, Robbie, Ryan, Tyler, Emily. Many happy moments were as a result of you! "Dont cry for what is gone... smile for what was" VOYAGE FUNERAL HOME 668-3151
