Amazing, just yesterday I was thinking of Joe and remembering him and the first time I heard him sing "Prisoner of Love" at St. Joachim's School. He was a good friend and a great guy. I'll never forget him

I just found out about Joe's death but am comforted by the kind words of so many whose lives he touched. We went to St. Joachim's together and he was a star with a lovely voice and kind manner. God bless Joe and his family.

I met Joe in 1968 while attending Rider College. He was a genuine nice guy and down to earth human being as well as having a wonderful singing voice. He had it all, looks, talent, athletic ability, but most of all he was just extremely sincere.
My warmest condolences to his family.

So sorry to hear of the passing lof JOE. He was in my Graduating Class of 1965 from St. Mary's Cathedral High School. I will always remember his outstanding singing voice, his sports and his Great Personality in High School. My Condolences to his dear Family.

Joe you were a class act in every way. May all of us who knew you a little or a lot see you on the other side. Love and peace to Gloria and all the family.

My first hour of this saturday awakening has been touched with sadness with the news of Joe having transcended this earth. I send the warmest condolences to the entire DeVito family. My treasured memories of Joe as a fellow musician/singer/performer and more so having embraced me within his family for so many years in Trenton during our youth. I remember Shelby as a toddler, she must be a beautiful and wise woman now. Would appreciate when you have a moment to connect with me at...

I remember like it was yesterday the first time I met Joe. He was subbing in the school district of Trenton. I was playing Dave Brubeck's "Blue Rondo Al La Turk" on the piano in Trenton High Schools auditorium around 1974. Joe stood in the back listening to me. When I finished playing he walked over to compliment me and said I reminded him of a friend of his that used to play the same song. He told me about his musical endeavors and a friendship was struck. When I moved back to Trenton in...

Gloria and family, we were away visiting our son and daughter-in-law in London when the news of Joe's passing was reported in the local paper.

Needless to say , we are so very sorry. Joe and I had such wonderful times together in the theatre. The USO show to the Far East in 1966 was the best! He was a wonderful talent and a wonderful fellow. He had great parents, whom I new as well.

I know you will miss him, as will I. He has left a bright legacy for us all to...

My sincere and deepest sympathy to all loving family members of my cousin, Joey. I have many fond memories of us as children and teens growing up in the Bristol and Chambersburg areas. Sadly I had written about the passing of Fred DeVito, brother of Joey, recently this past November-----this news is very sad for large loving families as we Favata's have been. My prayers and love are extended to my Trenton family as we remember his sweet singing voice, his loving and kind ways. Joey was a...
