Not sure what to say?

You have my deepest sympathy. May good memories provide solace for your family during this challenging time. May God provide you with the assurance that you will see your loved one again. John 17:3 -

I am very sorry to hear abut the passing of Joseph Gattone. When we "old-timers" from Glenbrook South hear the word, Gattone, so many fine memories of a remarkable family pop into our minds. I hope you are being comforted by all those reaching out to you now.

So sorry for your loss! Love to you and family, Judith

I will always remember you as a beautiful light. Rest in Peace, Joe

Sincere prayers and condolences to Joe's family. I'm blessed to have known and worked with Joe, first time at the Blue Max 1976 when I was performing with the Dean Martin Golddiggers, and often after that in Chicago clubs during the early 80's. Joe was a special musical talent. He was always a kind and humble man. His Italian warmth, beautiful piano playing, and love for his family was a gift to all of us.
Rest in Peace, Joe Gattone.

My condolences to Joe's wonderful wife, Jean, and family. Joe was one of the special mentors and exemplary human beings I was fortunate to know as I made my way through my musical career. He was a great musician and an even better man. Joe, I'll never forget the smiles and making beautiful music, whatever the venue or occasion.

Thea - I know how much you loved your dad and I am very sorry to hear of his passing and your loss. I hope you will find comfort in your memories and with your family at this difficult time.

To the Gattone Family,

Sorry for your loss.

When I was in first grade,at St. Ann's School, Joe invited me to sit on the piano bench next to him while he played. He must have been a freshman in high school. An unforgetable memory that has lasted over 70 years.
