In monument of a dear friend joseph. Soaring freely with the angels now.
Dedicated to the dear and wonderful Kirk family.

The tiger represents strength and power, because god's love and joseph's courage was more strong, powerful, and special then anyone can imagine.

The tiger being white represents pureness of soul, because white is a pure color. And Joseph was kindly welcomed into Christ's arms and his soul purified. To live in eternal happiness beside the lords throne.

The wings and halo represent Joseph's full love and kindness towards his friends and family, and lovely daughter and wife. And how he is a servant of the lord now. Carrying out his love and kindness in God's kingdom.

The tear running down his cheek represents the sadness of his family's sorrow for him. He does not like it when they shed to many tears, as he is always with them. His arm around their shoulders and his gentle hand to brush away their tears. It is also a tear of joy that all the true friends of himself and his family were there every step of the way. Helping them get through hard times. He is happy that all the friends and family may make sure they know he is there guiding them. Taking every step they do.

The rose represents Christ's everlasting love for us. Legend says that the virgin Mary left white roses at the foot of the cross. His holy blood shed for our horrible deeds seeped into the roses, turning them red with his holy blood. Every drop of blood holding more love then anyone could imagine. And it is now a symbol of everlasting love today. Which means Joseph is truly in the best hands. The hands of someone who loves him so much more than anyone else in the world could.

We love you Joseph!
