Life threw him obstacles, never did he cease to overcome. Kept his faith the whole way through, isn’t that what we’re told to do? Wasn’t one to have to be told, wishing to help others until his time was up. The Man up there, His reasons will never be understood. Placed yourself in His hands, He needs you now. Don’t look back, I’ll meet you there “Joseph-ine”.   Author, Hailee Foster Harwood (Paternal First Cousin)   Online condolences may be sent at www.tyreefuneralhome.com Information submitted by Tyree Funeral Home, Oak Hill, WV
