Come home Joseph and take your rest, Your work on earth is done.
You've fought a "Good Fight", Joseph you have made some touchdowns,
you have shot some basketball shots and played video games too.
God said Joseph; I have a better place, where there is no competition
and no championship games for you to play.
I'm going to take care of your loved ones
That You're leaving behind, Your Father, Richard, your Mother Felicia, Sisters Mary and Martina,
your Brothers Larry, Keith and Ernest, Grandmother Margie,
Classmates, Family and Your extended family at North Jackson High School.
Joseph we are going to miss your smiling face and
your outstanding personality and mannerism.
If we put our trust in God above, He'll show us the beauty of His Grace. He'll carry us through the rough times and help us to be strong, when we put our faith in Him, the days without you won't be quite as long. And though it's not easy saying goodbye to those that we love, when we put our faith in Him, Blessings of comfort rain down from above knowing that Master Joseph Humphrey, whom we cherished and adored is now resting in peace, safe and Secure in the arms of Christ our Lord.
