I don't know a lot about Joseph's childhood, but I know he had a wonderful mom and dad because he was so good and knew how to treat people.  My whole family, aunts, uncles, sisters and brothers love him and always will.  We all still remember him for the person he was.  I was proud of him because he never gave in to peer pressure and did the right thing at all times.  He will forever be loved by everyone who knew him.
