The Day...

8/6/2014

The date is here.  

The day Joe died.

The moment you wake up and feel like a train hit you from out of no-where.

The time you cry for no reason (well no reason at that moment other than the underlying sadness and longing that is there).

I can remember events of this day crystal clear.

But this year - I haven't been hit by a train yet ... I haven't cried (close - but not yet :))

I miss him everyday - I think of him everyday.

I wonder what he's doing and thinking.

There will always be a part of me missing - a part of all of us.  It's hard losing a best friend, but it's also hard to not live.

So today - I not only want to share an amazing photo from Joe's youth...

I also want to thank all of you for helping me live.  My family - my friends - strangers...Thank you!

And one last note for all who are trying to find their way without someone...Embrace the good days - know it's ok to smile - allow yourself to have sh*%y days - allow yourself to live.  There is no right or wrong way.  There is only your way.  I think I'm finding mine.

Word has it his wrestling name in this picture was "Net Man"...
Cheers to a really amazing person!

    Joe Vogel began his battle with cancer in 2006. He became a leader in his community and a hero among his friends and family. He made it his personal mission to help in the fight against cancer. His wife Rachel is carrying out his dream to help families dealing with cancer and to find a cure for this disease.
