Luke and I would like to thank you not only for this beautiful and moving tribute to Joe, but for all that you have done for your fire affected neighbours. Without thought for your own personal safety you were the first into the area to give the help that was so desperately needed. You put your own lives on hold as you manned the fire station and the relief centre for many weeks. You prepared countless meals, opened your homes and your hearts to us. You were always ready with a hug or a shoulder to cry on. You shared our tears. You have given and continue to so much amazing support. For this and so much more we are forever grateful. Thank you.
