October 2015 was when Rory delivered saddening news. He shared that Joey’s cervical cancer was terminal and that they were stopping all treatment as the chemo and radiation were no longer working on her. On the 9th of November, 2015, Rory announced via his blog that Joey had entered hospice care. She died on the 4th of March, 2016.

On what would have been their 14th wedding anniversary, Rory announced that as an anniversary gift to his late wife he had decided to make a film about her, To Joey, With Love.
