I remember Joe as a very funny and busy man. He worked a lot and played even harder. He loved his children and his Mary very much. He was a great neighbor to have.

Joe was my barber for many years while I was growing up in the Hyattsville area. Joe cut my father's hair and many of my brothers hair. On some of my recent visits back to the DC area I stopped in and had Joe cut my hair. Joe always had a smile and always remember who I was. Joe was a great person and may God Bless his soul!

Uncle Joe gave my son his first haircut as he did to many of his customers. He was always pleasant and happy. Always a smile on his face. We will miss you Uncle Joe and my condolences to Aunt Mamie, Anna, Gina, John and Cathy. May God Bless you all.
