Joey's life was cut short too early last night during the Movie in the Park when he was shot and senslessly killed protecting others.
He had his whole life ahead of him and, of course, had his downfalls through his young years but had gotten on a positive upswing.
This incident was completely unexpected, and no parent, grandparent, aunt, uncle, or any other family member should have a loved one taken from them so fast and so heartlessly.
If the reports are true, Joey sacrificed his life trying to protect others and preventing more fatalities last night, making his heroic act selfless and brave.
We are currently making arrangements and figuring things out with the funeral home at this time, but will update everyone accordingly.
Rest in peace, Joey. Our hearts are broken.
