I've known Joey since we were 15 living in Sunset Park area in Brooklyn. He was a great guy. Had many friends. He was very generous and enjoyed getting his friends together for a party or a dance. I didn't know he was sick. He will be greatly missed.

Joe will be sorely missed by many. He was a great addition to Renaissance and his friends. My late husband and I had many wonderful memories with Joe and Margie and I will miss him deeply, a wonderful man.
