“I will always remember those cozy/crazy Christmas mornings in the basement with the family, the way our babies would curl up on his belly, and how much joy he brought to those moments. He was a gentle, kind soul, and I'm grateful for all the memories. My thoughts are with all of you xoxo Vanessa Joemagi”
