Your sacrifice will never be forgotten. Your corrections brothers and sisters will always hold you in highest esteem. Tomorrow I will begin my trip to the wall in Washington DC, for you and for Brother Joe Gomm. This will be the trip for the two Joes. It will be all about the two Joes and their families. You were always there for us, we will be there for you, because hero's live forever. Rest in peace brother.
