God bless a wonderful man. Along with his brother Paul, my cousins Anthony & Peter, our friend Stan, we spent many hours and days in the field hunting together at the Bavarian Manor in Greene County NY.
Joe was by far the best of us and could take running deer with rifle or bow. Joe taught me how to field dress my first deer and we all spent many memorable evenings laughing, joking and just enjoying the company of great friends.
Joe was the last of the “Original generation” of hunters at the Manor. Joe was always a good friend who opened his home & heart to us all . He will very much be missed. We love you Joe.
