My prayers and condolences to the family of Joseph R. Vigil.
Joe and I served in the U.S.M.C. from Boot Camp in 1979 till we discharged in 1982. We became good friends, and we maintained communication after we got out of the Marines and shared a good friendship.
He was such a good man who loved his family very much. He often spoke of his sisters and brothers as well as his mom and dad.
Joe, you will be missed. Rest in Peace brother. May your family find peace and comfort.
Sincerely,
Pvt. Michael A. Vasquez
U.S.M.C.

My beautiful brother. How am I supposed to live life without you? I've always watched over you. I won't know what to do now. I know you're in heaven dancing with MOM which gives me much peace. Until I see you again my brother, thank you for letting me be your ROCK as you've said so many times. I love you so much and I miss you terribly.

Brother, you were so fond of Fr. Graham Golden and now both of you are together and taking care of your mom, for sure! My wish is that you would have stayed here with us longer, but our Lord had other plans for you. There are so many of your projects we left unfinished, but I know that you are now at peace and your awful pain-filled days are over.
Jeopardy Answer: He is the most inspirational and faith filled man who didn’t know the word “quit”.
Question: Who is Joseph R. Vigil…?
God bless you and we’ll see you later…
