Joe Boss,

He was an amazing person and this world has lost a great guy. Durring this summer i came to know joe like a best friend. We talked about everything at all hours of the day and night. I knew everything little thing about him and he knew me in and out.

We just started talking one day and relized we had alot of the same problems and from that day on we NEEDED each other. Joe came to me time and time again having feelings that is was not worth living, and at the time i had some of the same feelings as things heated up with my parents. but we both knew that "leaving" was not the answer but we HAD to hear it from eachother.

It got so bad that Joe told me he was cutting and I flipped out and made him stop. But i was never ready for the night he called me standing on the edge of the bridge ready to go and called to say goodbye. Well i was not going to let him. I wanted to screm and yell but I simply told him how I felt. I told him that if he would go the world lose a bright jew that made everyones day better. He didnt bleave me. so I told him that if he goes i go. and after the hour long phone call I heard him step down and start walking. he told me that he would not let the world lose me.

As school started we grew apart and talked from time to time. But I always missed the phone calls at 3 am just wanting to talk. (he never sleeps) I missed the calls that we didnt say a word we just sat and cryed for hours.

Now Joe is gone and i will never have that again. I dont know why he didnt call me or warn me .... i wish he did. I dont think i have cryed so hard so fast. You had no idea joe how deep you were in my heart and that will never ever change. we almost dated a few times and I wish we did. I wish I could of showed you that you could of been happy. Im so so sorry.

That night on the phone when he was going to jump, he said to me "Dan please remimber me ..... I trust you will" Well joe I will, I will always remimber you everyday, every time i hear the song "tuesday 3am" from the movie latter days and everytime I hear that great Tim McGraw song "Pleases remember me"

You will always live in me ... deep inside me. but now joe you can find better love that this world was unable to give you. i tryed i really tryed. I LOVE YOU a strong LOVE that wont die !!
