"You're Our Hero"
Joseph "JoJo" or "Champ" Champion
My Big Brother - who had touch so many
lives; seems to always become a topic
of discussion. How he played sports in
high school; how the Atlanta Braves took
a moment before the game to pay tribute;
his days at Morehouse, how active he was
in Church. Joe was the All-American guy
that anyone would have wanted as a Son,
Brother, Friend or just someone saying
"yeah, I know Joe Champion". This is
why he will NEVER/EVER be forgotten.
Joe, your little brother "Rap" whom
you never had the chance to see
but I know you met him in the loving
spirit when goes to his little closet
to speak to you.
WE ALL LOVE YOU AND WE KEEP YOU ALIVE!!
CAN'T WAIT TO SEE YOU AGAIN
YOUR SISTER " NITA"
