Joe was such a gentleman, and always so nice to talk to. In Church he never missed saying hello to someone and always knowing their name. It was a pleasure to have known him. I'm sure Joe is saying hello to all those in Heaven who have gone before him, and is calling them by their names. May he rest in peace.

My deepest sympathy to the family on your loss. "Uncle Joe" will be fondly remembered going back to when I was a Junior bridesmaid in his wedding to my Aunt Felicia and the years he worked at DeLaurenis Plumbing and DeFranco Plumbing. I was very happy he found Barbara after my aunt passed, and he had someone to share his life again. So easy to talk to and always a gentlemen. He will be missed by many.
