"the legacy"
YOU CAN SHED TEARS THAT I HAVE GONE,
OR YOU CAN SMILE THAT I HAVE LIVED,
YOU CAN CLOSE YOUR EYES AND PRAY THAT
I'LL COME BACK,OR YOU CAN OPEN YOUR EYES
AND SEE ALL THAT I HAVE LEFT,
YOUR HEART CAN BE EMPTY BECAUSE
YOU CAN'T SEE ME,OR CAN BE FULL OF THE
LOVE WE SHARED
YOU CAN TURN YOUR BACK ON TOMORROW AND
LIVE YESTERDAY
OR YOU CAN BE HAPPY FOR TOMORROW
BECAUSE OF YESTERDAY,
YOU CAN REMEMBER ME AND ONLY THAT
I'VE GONE
OR YOU CAN CHERISH MY MEMORY
AND LET IT LIVE ON,
YOU CAN TRY TO CLOSE YOUR MIND,
BE EMPTY AND TURN YOUR BACK,
OR YOU CAN DO WHAT I'D WANT:
LAUGH, OPEN YOUR EYES, LOVE AND LET GO..
eternal flame for you joe xxx

Wait till the clouds roll by !
I am 43 yrs old and I can go back to when I was 4 listening to Joe on the radio,everywhere you went in Cork you would hear Joe singing on the radio or the record player.
There are so many of Joe's songs that hold very special memories for me,but one in particular is wait till the clouds roll by Jenny,a beautiful song.
My partner's brother attended Joe's funeral,he said it was a fantastic turn out,so fitting for such a man.
The last time I saw Joe sing I was heavily pregnant and could barely walk never mind dance,but I was on that floor waddling away to Joe belting out Good Bye Venice Goodbye which is my all time favorite of Joe's songs,
Well, Joe god bless.
♥The gift of life is given, then its cruelly snatched away♥
♥It leaves so many broken hearts & sadness, come what may♥
♥Especially now at Christmas, which you loved with all your heart♥
♥The thought of you not being here is tearing us apart♥.
♥And yet we must be thankful, for the happy times we spent♥
♥When love & laughter filled the air, before the magic went♥
♥The pictures are so clear today, of a happy smiling face♥
♥The kind of perfect loveliness, which no-one can replace♥
♥This little Christmas message is to let you know for sure♥
♥The love that’s felt for you lives on, and will forever more.♥
love Alison xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
