Dear Family and Friends,
Thank you for visiting Joseph's Giving Page and donating to his cause.
As many of you know, Joseph loved film not only for the entertainment but also
for the studying...directing, lighting, shot angles, story line and especially,
the writing. His other love was comedy. Ever since he was able to write, he
kept a journal to record anything he thought was funny. He would run upstairs
and write down what he heard as well as any ideas that may have come to mind. I
have yet to read any of them as I promised him it was his private journal. They
are all sitting untouched up in his room as I have been emotionally unable to
read them. His third activity while sick was Lego's, spending hours buiding
Star War ships and buildings. He has quite the collection upstairs in his
room...some lay untouched as he was unable to build them toward the end.
Thus, Joseph asked that we create a fund to assist other young adults who may
need some additional support through their cancer treatment. He wanted to
brighten their days and provide them the means to not only receive treatment
but also to be able to bring some joy and a smile to their lives.
Let's keep Joseph's spirit alive and help others keep their spirits alive so
they can focus on getting better.
With deepest appreciation,
Taryn Recco
