Dear Brother Joey, Lefty,

I want you to know how much we love and will miss you. We hope and pray that you are now reunited with our parents, Margaret (Peggy) and James (Jimmy)Guzzetti, your niece, Laura Anne Kiesinger and all our family, relatives and friends who have passed from this world into the next and are all with God our heavenly Father.

When we were growing up in Watertown I remember you loved to draw and paint. In fact you painted a picture of a boxer with red gloves, red trunks, and red shoes on my roller skating case standing in a boxing ring. You also painted your name, mine and my friend's names in silver on it. I still have and will always cherish this case.

Your greatest passion was boxing. You even built a regulation ring in our back yard in Watertown and had a gym in our basement for lifting weights, with punching bags, etc.

You were always very protective of me, especially when I became a teenager and old enough to date. You made sure that the young men in Watertown respected me.

You certainly were a handsome young man, and many of the girls in Watertown wanted you to ask them for a date, especially my friends.

Joey, Lefty, good-bye for now!
With all our love, thoughts, and prayers.

Your sister Honey, Dick, nephew Phil and family, niece Joni and family, and nephew Jimmy Kiesinger.
