In loving Memory of our cousin Joe C. 

           
   To our dear cousin Joe C.
There are so many things we'd like to tell you. 
We never got to say goodbye, 
and Lord knows we didn't want to. 
How we wish we could see your 
smile just once more..
.Hear your laugh,see your face 
or just see you walk in the door. 
We have lost a good friend 
and our hearts drown in sorrow. 
We miss you everyday, 
and we'll miss you more tomorrow.
 We'll try to stay strong
 But we can't hold back the tears, 
we will go on missing you
 all these coming years.
 One day we'll meet again in heaven 
and we'll all rejoice together 
Untill then we'll remember our cousin... 
our friend...Joe C., always and forever.

This is an original, created by Leah Nadeau, for my cousin Joesph Champagne who left us on August 13,2006...only in body... for his spirit still lives on within us. I didn't get to pay my last respects because I couldn't make it to the funeral. I just want him to know it's not that I dont care. in his ownway he knows why I couldnt go,  but i'll light a candle for him as often as I can to make it up to him. I dedicated this poem to him from the bottom of my heart from his cousins: Leah, Guy, Jesse, Danielle, Keith, and last but not least...our Mother, Linda, who knew and loved Joe and misses him as much as we do. Our hearts go out to his family and friends. 
We love you Joe C.

My Brother, I miss you  / Georgia Morin (Sister)
Joe,

Its hard to believe its been a month. It seems like an eternity. Not seeing or talking to you. It has been very hard, knowing you were taken it such a tragic way and knowing we can't see you. Its been hard on all of us, especially mom and dad. The have a good day once in a while but its hard knowing their baby boy ain't there. Ma calls me and we cry together. Its hard not being there for them, with me being away at school. I wish I could be there and take care of them. It's especially hard on Sunday's when were having dinner, still thinking you are not gone and waiting for you to come to the table. It is very hard. 
We love and miss you very much.

It's really crazy that you are gone its like you were here just yesterday and now not. That night that happen I cryed for the longest time and I didn't want that to be you but i guess it was which it shouldn't of been. I just guess it was your time and god wanted you. Hope your safe and watch over all of us who are thinking of you.

I have been there and it still hurts so much!  / Bev Anderson (cousin)
Sharon, George, and families,  I share your loss of such a precious son.  My heart goes out to you and you are in my prayers during this terrible time of heartache.  You will visit him in your dreams and he will give you the hugs you wish so badly for.  Though he is gone, he will always remain in your hearts as you go through this roller coaster of grief.  All the little reminders of him are not by accident, pay attention to them.  He is letting you know he is with you. 

Please don't hesitate to call or email me.  My heart aches for you.  I realize what you have lost.

Joseph / Angela Johnson (Aunt)
You are in a place where there is no pain, no heartache, no broken hearts, no tears of sorrow, you are so blessed. We all want to be there one day, save us a spot. I talk to your mom almost every day, some days her heart hurts so much she feels it will break, I think her heart wants to break because it can't hold all the love you left her. If God will allow you a favor, ask him to give your Mom and Dad and sisters and brother some peace of mind and heart. Your Champagne and Allery family miss you and love you. You will forever be in our memory and in our broken hearts. Love - Auntie Mae Close

And God Said.......  / Diane Angel Mom- Katie Cassidy (I care )
I said, God I hurt
And God said, I know

I said, I cry alot
And God said, That's why I gave you tears

I said, Life is so hard
And God said, That's why I gave you loved ones

I said, But my loved one died!!
And God said, So did mine!!

I said, It's such a great loss!!
And God said, I saw mine nailed to a cross!!

I said, But your loved one lives!!
And God said, So does yours!!

I said, Where is he now??
And God said, My Son is by my side and
Your Joseph is in my arms!!

To MY ANGEL JOSEPH  / Georgia Morin (sister)
Joe,
Hey there little brother, been thinking of you. Its been 16 days since you left on your journey. I hope it has been sightful and you seen a lot of different and new things. I have been thinking of you alot lately. I also had a dream of you, you were in the hospital with a cast on your arm and leg. I woke up wishing that was were you really were. Its been hard, thinking you will run up the stairs, and say "Hi, what you doing?  or sitting down to Sunday Dinner. Well, you are in a better place and you get to hold and talk with Bailie, I wish I were able to. One day, I will hold my baby. Well at least you can and you get to be together. Take care of my baby. I hope you have been visiting with grandma Fee. She must be telling u stories of ma, and the rest of the family. You must be getting a kick out of her stories. Missing and praying for you and the family. God Bless, 

Luv and miss you little Brother,

Hey Little Brother, I miss you  / Georgia, Richard, RJ Morin (Sister)

Hey little Brother, I miss you, so much. It is so hard going through the loss of a family member, especially a brother. You were taken so suddenly and without Not seeing you or able to say good-bye for the last time, really makes it worse. I've been thinking about you so much and wishing we had more time to talk, laugh, and spend time together. Mom and dad are taking it very hard. They have been crying so much to see their baby gone. It is hard on all of us. We all miss you. You must be up in heaven, catching up with Grandma "Fee" and "Kokum", Grandpa "Joseph" and Uncle "Richard". Telling them your stories and listening to theirs. I love you and miss you.

To Joe and family:  / Michael Blue (Cousin)
To Joe and family, first I want to thank you for allowing me to do the eulogy during the services. One never knows exactly what to say at times like these, so a lot of what is said is simply memories of what the family has gone through and things that made them smile. I hope I was able to relay the message of the eulogy with the respect and honor that was deserving of Joe and his time with us.

Also, I know that Joe’s parents, family and friends will never get over the loss of Joe, so I and many others will continue to offer prayers and be there to offer our support.

Joe, until we meet again, thank you for the memories and the smiles that you brought to our family.
