I want to say thank you to all of you who have stuck by us during this difficult time. I thank you for your prayers, your hope, and for those of you who made monetary donations which really helped with my travel expenses. 
Annie is with God now and no longer experiencing the pain and suffering.
I truly believe she is finally at peace.

Now it is time for our family to grieve and learn to live life without her physical presence. I know she will be looking after us all from heaven and that someday we will be reunited and it will be a beautiful day.
Thank you so much.
My love goes out to each of you.
Joe
