<p>Joe's final video, posted a day before his sister&nbsp;shared the tragic news, showcased a man who was both reflective and introspective. With a following of over 180,000, he addressed his audience, his voice a mix of vulnerability and resilience. He wished to be remembered for the laughter he stirred, for the music he created, and for the positive impact he had on children as a camp counsellor.</p>

<p>"I want to be remembered as a creator, as a creator of videos that made people laugh, and a creator of music. I also want to be remembered as a camp counsellor, who helped kids to make happy memories. I'd rather not be remembered as an addict and an alcoholic who put his family through hell. But unfortunately, that's also part of me," he said.</p>

<p>"I feel so thankful to have such a following. You guys mean the world to me. All in all, I've had a terrific life. I got to visit the other side of the world and I made tons of friends from all walks of life. I have nothing to complain about, and I have nothing but peace and love for each and every one of you," Joe added.</p>
