Sometimes, when I'm typing, I hit that thumbs down icon on my comment and if I don't go back and check, it stays there. It may just be inadvertent. And, For a while, I thought the thumbs down and thumbs up, were for comments. Oops, I see they are for comments, too, I think. LOL

I am facing stage 4, metastatic breast cancer, first was diagnosed the same year Joey was diagnosed. I was stage 1, did chemo, radiation, and took the meds. I cried when Joey passed, but I got strength from her faith and facing a terrible disease with the peace that comes from God. Now, having a cancer, that keeps me in pain, and on 3 drugs to fight cancer for the rest of my life, which could be short, I am still finding ability to face it with strong faith and grace, we never know when Jesus calls us home, but what a glorious day that will be. I just feel sad to leave my loved ones

My dear sister-in-law who I have loved for over 36 years is on the verge of crossing over, and it hurts so much. Then I find that today was Joey's birthday, I don't believe this is a coincidence at all. Her spirit called upon the Lord to lead me and here I am. I love this message. Love goes on forever.

I cried and prayed my heart out for Joey and the rest of your family. It broke my heart for the world to lose such a beautiful loving light such as hers. Now after years of praying for God to send someone to love me, my new husband who is the most loving gentle thoughtful man is fighting lung cancer. When he isn't around I cry my heart out. I was watching Joey sing "When I'm gone" and your beautiful memorial to a truly beautiful lady inside and out and sobbed so hard I didn't even hear him come home. Just sending love and prayers to all the people who were so blessed to be able to have such a beautiful soul in their lives. Hugs to you all.

To you Rory, I’m glad you had the love of your life. I know Joey did as well. You both made a beautiful little girl that was conceived of love. The Lord made room for her in heaven with the rejoicing with the song angels sing. Heavenly music in which I'm sure you know the songs as you can hear her sing. So much rejoicing as she waits for you and your precious daughter. If or when you are able to walk your daughter down the aisle it may feel like your heart could burst but you will remember that love which bound you and Joey shared. God bless you and your loved ones for all eternity.

My husband and I shared a love just like this. We were truly one in the Lord and had an amazing journey together until I lost him to cancer 3 1/2 years ago. There's no pain like the pain of having to say goodbye to your best friend and the person in your life who makes you feel whole. It's so surreal to me, even to this day. I know it has been 8 years for Rory now, but seeing the love they shared, I know that there must be a place in Him still to this day that only God can comfort. I don't think it will ever go away, or at least not for me. It's amazing to see his courage to continue living and even finding love again. I'm definitely not there. I still feel crippled like I'm missing a part of myself. I'm just leaning into the Grace of God to get me through one breath, one day at a time.

This True love story has me balling. I did not know who they were until this past October. When I had seen a video of a woman playing with her daughter at the doctors I thought they were there for her daughter ( lord pls forgive me). I had no clue what battle she was fighting I just thought it was a BEAUTIFUL video of mother and daughter. Later on about November I started seeing head lines and things my friends had shared on Facebook about this family. It absolutely broke my heart. I knew then that she was the one who was there for that doctor visit that day I first watched their video. I felt horrible. Ever since then I have been checking on her and reading Rorys blog. I cannot imagine going through any of this. I have been in tears for days as if one of my own family members has passed. I really feel heartbroken for Rory and their daughter. But then I think about her faith in God and the love she had. I wish I could be more like her. She truly had faith in Jesus. And I believe thats what kept her here for those milestones back in feb. Such an inspiration. She makes me want to love my family more with every beat of my heart. This Family has made an impression on my heart and soul. I will never forget her and her husband and Indy. They are a great example of Gods love. If you truly believe in Jesus and follow him he will take care of you every step of the way. And I did not believe that until Joey and Rorys story. The message God wanted to bring from this is already reaching so many people. Even though I dont know you personally I love you Joey Rory And Indy. I pray that God keeps his arms around you all.

Real love is like that! There are those who have that kind of love in their marriage , but sad to say it’s not the majority. I lost my husband recently. We had a long life together raising four children and living to see our grandchildren grow up. Regardless of the years you had, they are never enough. When two truly become one it would be wonderful to go together. Especially if you have raised your family and even the grandkids are adults. But God has a plan and there is a reason I lost my sweet husband and was left behind. My husband missed making it to his 79th birthday by a few months and I am 76. God gave us a great life, but it’s so hard being the one left behind.

Rory, I just discovered both you and your wife. You're sitting with Buck Owen's (I think) and watching this on the "circle " channel really has touched me. I would trade my life to let you have your beautiful wife back. I'm in so much pain right now from my serious surgeries that I've had. All I want to do is "close my eyes and never wake up!" I'm here all alone, living out of my small truck as I have for the last 20 years living on the streets. My tears are flooding down my face. My older gurl (4-legged) knows when I'm crying and sad, she always comes to me to let me know, it's ok Daddy..... Your wife was filled with love and I'm happy to see how you two cared for each other. She is up in heaven singing to the angels! "I really mean that I would trade my life so you could have her back with you, your babies." "LIVE LONG AND PROSPER " ROCK-STAR TREK TOS

I'm so sorry Rory to hear this. I kept prayers going for Joey as I did for my sister. Who sadly lost her battle with cancer a few weeks before Christmas. It all touched me deeply and, to imagine the similarities between them and what a horrific storm it's been. Like my sister, Joey too is with her lord and savior. My thoughts and continued prayers are with you and your family, may God give you strength and comfort in the days to come. God bless ya'll.

Rory my heart goes out to you as I love my wife and family as you do , I’m so glad I lived to see you two perform and hear your music and messages God bless you.

She Joey was an angel on earth. I truly believe this. God needed another beautiful angel but we needed her too. I love hearing her voice and still watch old videos.💗🥰🙏🏼

The words he found, he wrote....nothing but TRUE, ACCEPTANCE, CHANGE.....it is a beautiful, yet sad story cut to early. Nothing but the truth about life and love. A man that deserves the love, the respect for all he has done and will do. He never gave up, notnon himself, his children, his passion..... Joey's town. ALL WOMEN, THIS IS A TRUE MAN, HUSBAND, FATHER, FRIEND....THIS IS A MAN OF TRUE FAITH, LOVE, LOYALTY, AND RESPECT

[@JackieJax41]

Thanks for sharing this with us God bless him

[@dianereynolds4767]

I remember when it was announced that she was going to die, i cried so hard, as if she was my family, could not understand such a beautiful christian woman, would be dying so young.

[@larryiowatexasrooster9317]

Once a year, since delivering his speech that so impacted me, I return here to view & listen to Rory’s open love letter to his forever bride. I do it to remind myself of many things, but most of all, to remind myself about the properties of ‘Love’, beyond the here & now. Love is ETERNAL, it is INFINITE♾️

[@lorettaryanmcivor9966]

Beautiful yet so sad God bless you Rory,Rest in peace Joey xxx 👼🙏🏼💕

[@beatricesmith9876]

I miss her terribly, but I look forward to following your story, and watching dear sweet Indy grow before our eyes. God continue to grow your future, keep sharing this Great Love Story.

Hello Beatrice.. How are you doing?

[@jilllingenfelter4682]

Your beautiful wifey Joey has definitely inspired me in more ways than one :) I’m so extremely thankful/grateful to her:) And I can’t wait to meet her in Heaven someday very soon I’m super excited about that for sure:)

[@hightechred]

Found this singing couple a week or so ago and today upon searching youtube for more of their songs I came across an interview of them, that was when I found out what a special couple they were because of their love. The very next video I found was this one I could NOT BELIEVE the title so I had to check it out, made me cry, that is how much their songs touched me in such a short time and little exposure to their story.

[@jackieev5554]

this is so sad but so beautiful prayers sent to you Rory and family thank you for sharing your memories

[@Coopdizzle]

What a great man. My heart breaks thinking that soon this could be my husband. I hate cancer. Thinking of this family always.

[@gwenthorne2230]

I always will remember her strong faith,courage and love with the most beautiful godly smile of an angel. I kept praying during her illness

[@JulieR73]
