LARI, JOSEPH Joseph R. Lari Our precious son left us one year ago on 7/25/2013. The despair of that day will always be seared into our aching hearts. We were blessed to have Joseph for 9781 days. Every second of each day a memory, followed by the question, why? Joseph lived an adventurous life with each day a new pursuit - hiking, camping, hunting, fishing, sparring, exploring, working, laughing, learning, praying, loving. Joseph had a compassionate heart, a healing spirit and humility. His love for his son Dylan, his brother Daniel, his parents, family, friends and strangers was shared with silent intensity. Days prior to his unexpected death, Joseph affirmed his greatest love of God which brings us great peace. His Bible went with him wherever he lived. His healing embrace will always be with us as we close our eyes and call upon that memory. For those of us left to follow, we keep Joseph's spirit alive by sharing the blessed stories, experiences, words, and silent moments. In faith, we look forward to the day when we will be reunited with Joseph again in God's loving light, in Jesus' name.
