Wonderful Father of Four Girls

Donation protected
Joe got a brain hemorrhage on Saturday morning, sadly to say he wasn’t able to fight this, and as hard as it is for me to say, my loving husband of 19 years, my best friend  has been pronounced dead Sunday, November 20th.   My husband was the breadwinner of my family, we have four girls, that he loved. I really need to ask for donations to us to be able to care for all of the situation now, and after, as I will unfortunately have to raise our girls, myself and we need help. This man was my best friend, he knew me more than my own mother, I made him my life. I love him and wish this to be a dream, I keep telling myself " Please God, dont let this be real, theres no way this is happening, I need him here so we can grow old together" but it's not a dream, theres no waking up tommorow for me and his girls and seeing him here with us making us laugh, giving us hugs. I know I have to be strong for my girls, but my heart is shattered, and I have to pick up the pieces. I admire him as he served in the U.S. Air Force, and was a veteran, proud of his service. My husband was my best friend, and such an awesome, loving father. Today November 21st is his birthday and me and his girls will celebrate for him by watching the Oakland Raiders game, he was proud of the team these past years, his favorite up and coming player was Amari Cooper, number 89, and had respect for their quaterback Dereck Carr number 4. I hope they give him a win on his birthday, and maybe finally go to the Superbowl. I can talk about football, because I knew him very well, we talked about everything He loved spending time watching the Raiders but most of all he loved making his girls laugh with his funny jokes, his jump farts, as long as he could make them smile and happy, it meant the world to him. Even though he had all girls he has encourage them to learn coding, be gamers, and they have are following daddy in wanting to be super tech sayvy as he was. Yesterday Nobember 20th his girls gave him a last hug and talked to him even as it looked as though he was sleeping in hopes of hearing is still there, they reminded him of all he has done for them, and that they love him, the youngest one smiled to him and said "goo night daddy" in her own little child voice. He was only 42, and will not get see his baby girls grow up into what he invisioned. He wants a better life for them not one like he has had, with so much struggle. They will have to make daddy proud so one day in the future they can say" Look dad, I did it, everything you wanted me to do in life, I did it."
