I knew Joe from MHS. I will always remember how friendly Joe was when I would run into him around town. When we would bump into each other here or there he always had such a big grin on his face. My prayers are with his family during this difficult time. HALEY KEMP WINCHESTER, FEBRUARY 26, 2009 Oh Bubba...how I will miss you so dearly. Your smiling face, your never-ending stories, and your strong love for all of us are just a few of the wonderful memories I will carry. Although, you sure knew how to ruffle my feathers from time to time, but only the way a brother would do of course. I will cherish all of our times together. Always and forever in my heart is where I can find you now. All our love SARAH, JOSH, KEAGEN, KADE, & KARSON DOTTER, FEBRUARY 26, 2009 I was blessed to teach Joe and Matt middle school Science- Joe in Princeton and Matt in McKinney. It was funny how Joe was always checking on how Matt was doing in my class! (Yes Matt, he really was checking up on you!) When Joe left Princeton, I was so sad; he was the kind of student any teacher wanted to keep in class. But I was lucky because of his friendship with my best friend s son, I got to keep tabs on Joe. He was always happy and every time I saw him I got a huge hug! I am going to miss those hugs and his sweet smile! I pray that we all cherish the love Joe brought to our lives and keep sharing the memories of how much he enriched our lives. Ms. B BETTY BENJAMIN, FEBRUARY 24, 2009 The year before we lost Scott, Joseph and Sarah and I were riding in the bed of my dad's truck to Goldthwaite and I told them I would be mad at them forever (for what, I don't recall). Just to drive that point home, I wrote it down in my notebook and showed it to them. I don't think I ever saw Little Joe again that he didn't remind me I had broken my promise. I take comfort in knowing that the last family gathering I attended was spent almost exclusively with Little Joe, talking about his kids. I had no idea that would be the last time I saw him, but I told him how special I have always thought he was and how much faith I had in him. I hope that his children will grow up knowing the extent of the
love their father felt for them, and how desperately he wanted to do right by them. All my love. PAMELA RAY MILES, FEBRUARY 24, 2009 Praying for you, Sarah, from New Zealand... My prayers for you are: Isaiah 26:3,4; Romans 5:3-5; Matthew 5:4 SUSANNE ASCHLIMAN, FEBRUARY 24, 2009 Dear Miles Family, We are friends of Karen Oray and Glenis Miles. We are lifting you up to God in prayer at this difficult time--for His Spirit to surround you with peace, comfort, love, healing and strength in the days and weeks ahead. May Psalm 34 encourage your hearts today. With heartfelt sympathy and compassion from Minnesota, James & Carolyn Lichtblau & family JAMES & CAROLYN LICHTBLAU, FEBRUARY 23, 2009 I didnt know Little Joe that well since we just met a year ago on a hunting trip and we only had the oppertunity to talk a couple times out at his uncle Mikes place. I do know one thing for sure and that is we both really enjoy hunting and fishing with his uncle Mike. My thoughts and prayers go out to this family during this time of sorrow and I pray that god comforts each of them as well as gives them the strength they need during this difficult time. MARK LEE PHILLIPS, FEBRUARY 23, 2009 You don't know me... but I am praying for a peace that surpasses all understanding in this hard time. May God make himself real to you and wrap His arms around you. He will give strength to the weary and will comfort those in need. Never lose sight of Him. You will keep in perfect peace all who trust in you, all whose thoughts are fixed on you! Isaiah 26:3 JANELLE LEHMAN, FEBRUARY 22, 2009 I never actually had the opportunity or pleasure to meet this fine young man, but I've heard nothing but wonderful things about him. It's a shame to have lost him so soon. Rest in peace, Lil' Joe. DOUG DUNCAN, FEBRUARY 22, 2009 Even though I never knew Joseph or you, Sarah, I have heard so much about you through John. Sarah, you have been such a wonderful boss for John. I
know he would do anything for you. My prayers are with you and your family. My small Bible study group all the way in Indiana are also praying for you too. If there is anything else we can do, please let us know. KATY LYNN ROBERTSON, FEBRUARY 22, 2009 Your family is in my thoughts and prayers. I didn't know Joseph but I work with his sister Sarah. My blessings for everyone. JOHN NUSTAD, FEBRUARY 22, 2009 Joe, I wish that I could be there right now, but since I can't my sister will be there in my place. I haven't stopped thinking of you since I was told. I can still remember being a freshmen in high school and you being a junior, and you would drive me home from school everyday (even though I think you were a little embarrassed to be with a freshman). I remember that old blue explorer, gosh we had so much fun! Do you remember the time that we were driving on that old country road and like a million butterflies started flying all around us? I will always think of you, and laugh at the memories we shared, there are so many it's hard to pick sometimes. You will always be alive in my heart and I will always love you. Jaime JAIME LOFTIN, FEBRUARY 21, 2009 We love you Lil' Joe, and will continue to miss you forever! COREY, BECCA, & MAKAYLA MILES, FEBRUARY 21, 2009 Andrea, Joe, and Family, I am so sorry for your loss. This is such a tragedy. I, unfortunately, am out of the state at the moment and will be unable to attend. I will contact you as soon as I am back next week. My heart and prayers are with you. Much Love...Julie JULIE CLEMENTS, FEBRUARY 21, 2009 Our deepest sympathies to all of you. Bubba was one of the most respectful, loving, and precious child (then young man) that we have ever met.
