Joe was a devoted and loving husband, father, grandfather, son, brother and friend. Family always came first for him. He was a caregiver to his wife, showed care and affection to his daughters and was proud to be a girl dad. He lived his life with a good sense of humor, but also knew how to be a voice of reason when someone needed help. Through his life he remained upbeat and positive, and shared the positivity whenever he could with compliments and affection. In his final days he expressed his gratitude for all the women in his life who were able to take care of him and faithfully said “Blessed be women”. And he always left you with a “Be good and be safe!” as a goodbye. He will be deeply and greatly missed.
In lieu of flowers, donations are appreciated to the Capuchin Soup Kitchen, which was special to Joe.
