Bernice is the cousin of my Dad, John Benoit. When Joe married Bernice, the only girl in a family of five, he certainly became the brother-in-law of an interesting bunch of good guys. I shall always remember how very kind Joe was to my grandfather, Freddie Benoit, and to me. The Benoits send their sincerest condolences to all of the members of Joe's family.

My deepest sympathies to the Marzo family. I remember Joe & Bernice fondly from my childhood days. He was best man for my mom and dad( Lucy & Frank Servideo) 59 years ago and was a big part of their "crowd" way back when. God bless.

I send my thoughts and prayers to Bernice and the children and grandchildren of Joe, my godfather. One of the kindest men I ever knew, he was a close friend to my mother's family, especially my Uncle Severino Renzoni. My uncle and Joe were good friends. I knew why my uncle became his friend. Joe was a jewel.
I will remember him daily in my prayers and al of family.
