He had a laugh designed to make others laugh and a smile that could light up the sky. He will be dearly missed by all who knew him.

Wes & Lynnette Wescovich Vada Rambo
I'm sorry for your loss. I hope that they find the driver of the truck.
I was Joey's substitute teacher a few times. He was always joking and talkative, wanting to help me run the class. I will remember his smiles and laughter always. I'm so sorry for your loss and I will pray for your family. Ellen Clark
