We have a lifelong friend we will be missing dearly! Years of great memories. The cruise to The Bahamas, Our Atlantic City excursion with a group of friends! We sure had some awesome parties back in the day too! The funniest memory was walking up to your house when you were asleep and sneaking in your basement getting a couple of pitchers of beer when we ran out. Too funny, but you didn’t care. All the help you gave us working on our things around the house. We sure will miss you, Joe. RIP” We will keep an eye on Paula for you and help her if she needs anything.

Rest in peace cousin. I’ll always remember while growing up on Main Street, we would be swimming in our pool & you would yell down to us from your house. Many family memories over the years. You are free from pain and with Aunt Izzy & Uncle Kenny.
