____________________________ A meeting place for the FRIAMILY of Joanne Daquano _____________________________
I have had an interesting few days at work and "PLAY" I have met many people who know Joanne or Mike or who have heard of them and what has transpired over the past few weeks.
Joanne followed me around at work the past few days. Songs were playing in houses that are her. "Arms Of The Angel " was playing in one house. I saw two placards in one day at different houses that spoke of passion. One of them said, "In Life, Many things will catch your eye, few things will capture your heart, These are the things that you should pursue." I learned that a Martin guitar is being raffled off at Pine Cone Studios for $10.00 A ticket. All proceeds go to the Daquano Children's trust fund. I learned this from Craig Shnieder who Mike knows well. I hadn't seen him in years and just bumped into him one night. I was with friends at Barber Town on Wed. and I noticed that the advertising screen showed that Power Zone fitness is doing a fundraiser for breast cancer in memory of Joanne Daquano. I said to people "That's MY Sister'", She is definitely having an impact.
I have felt a light and energy surrounding me that I have not felt in a long, long, time. I am happy that Mike has chosen to keep us up to date on the progress of the Eight Feet left in the immediate Family. I, myself have discovered that the FRIAMILY is larger than I thought. Even after such a huge and awesome tribute as happened last week. Thurs, after the wake, I saw Larry Milton play at Barber Town. He was playing "Knocking On Heaven's Door" when I walked in and had just dedicated it to Joanne. He almost choked up when he saw me as I rarely go there at all any more.
I think that we can trust that our Angel is alive and well and looking out for all of us, Giving still and continuously. We can count ourselves lucky to have such an Angel on our side.
I miss you Joanne. And I miss Mike and Dylan and Dean and Darcy. I can't wait to see you and tell you in person about these things that are happening. Rest well and know that Much Love is sent your way every second of the day.
All my Love,
Uncle Paul
