Joey at rest...


Evening Bloggers,

Sad day today. We entered Rod's brother Joey into rest.


For those who did not know...Joey's last bout in life was fighting cancer.

Joey was laid to rest in style and comfort surrounded by his loving family and dearest friedns. 

I do have some pictures to share with you...but I will not post the ones of him.

I myself was so happy when I saw Joey after we left him so drained after his death on Friday. The funeral home did such a fantastic job. Joe looked like his old self again.

He was sporting a white bandana on his forehead with his sunglasses resting on his head. He was in his Black Harley vest with a long sleeve Harley T-shirt surrounded by memory photos and memorabilia to take on his journey into his new life. His lap was covered with his Harley blanket before the casket was closed. On the hood of the casket was an embroidery of a motorcycle done with orange to represent Harley. His niece Sonia's girls called him Peace Man. The words were put on there to represent Joe because he was the peace maker along with being very loving.

The following pictures are from the cemetery. He is buried about 40 feet away from his mom (Diana) who passed away in 2011. On the other side of the cemetery in the military section is his father (Rex) who passed away in 1996.

We shared some of Joey's flowers with his parents before we left the cemetery.

Rest in peace our loving Joey and we will see you when our journey comes.

 This was on the inside cover of the coffin. Absolutely wonderful accent. And so appropriate.




 This motorcycle is on the top of the vault.


 Peace Out!
