Thoughts

I was a friend of Joe’s on the internet back when we were 14 and 15. We talked pretty consistently in the summer of 2015 and into 2016. We had fan accounts on Instagram for various TV shows and YouTubers. Talking with him was always the highlight of my day despite the four-hour time difference. His talent and passion for music was so inspiring to me. He was so funny, charming, and compassionate. When I lost my account I lost contact with Joe, so I didn’t know about his untimely departure until very recently. Even though we hadn’t been in contact, I wondered about him from time to time and wished I had a way to reach him. It’s been years, but it feels like yesterday that we were dreaming/joking about flying the 3,771 miles to see each other. I was in a dark place when we met, but he always talked me through to the other side of my troubles. I’ll never forget the kindness he showed me. For Joe’s mum, Louise - Would you be willing to reach out to me? I left my email in my display name. Thank you.

I knew Joe for a few years, we used to be really close and then we drifted apart... I only heard about his passing last night because I’m not somebody he ever had around physically. I knew him as somebody who always wanted to help other people before he would help himself. He would stay up into the early hours of the morning talking to me, reassuring me, singing and playing guitar for me, all just to make sure I would fall asleep because he knew he was the one thing that helped. I can’t begin to imagine how many times he helped me through difficult patches of life, and I just wish he could be here to help me through this one. Truly a light in the darkest of hours, he is very missed, and still very loved. X

Although we had not kept in touch in recent years, Joe did have quite the impact on my life. When I was 6 years old I moved to England from Texas because of my dad’s job and was forced to join a new school in a place where I felt very alone. On my first few days of year 2 at Thomas A Becket, I met Joe who was very friendly and kind to me when others like to poke fun at my very different texan accent because I was the “American kid”. His fun loving spirit always had me laughing and he never failed to make me feel welcomed and valued in our friendship even at our young age, from the good times walking home from school to inviting me to his super cool birthday party at Chessington Theme Park. He was also my only friend to move with me to Downsbrook from TAB for middle school and from there our friendship only became stronger. My 5 short years in England, from Years 2-6 in school, are still very dear to my heart and a lot of that is because of the countless amazing memories I have from then, many including Joe’s awesomeness. Joe is beyond one of the greatest friends I’ve ever had, and it breaks my heart that I won’t get to catch back up with him one of these days when I finally get to go back and visit England again, but I know the fun loving Joe I knew wouldn’t want anything more than for me to be happy doing the things I love. Rest easy buddy. I love you my dear friend and will always cherish the memories we shared. -Scott Kittlitz
