Joseph M. Margiotta

Ralph "Sonney" Goodson and Richard F. Meriday. Long time supporters. WE send our deepest sympathy and condolences

I would like to extend my deepest sympathy to you and your family with respect to Joe's passing. I was the first black Republican executive leader in the Nassau County Executive Committee because of Joe's and Sen. Edward J. Speno's endorsements. The Party, the State & the Nation has lost an excellent man, the likes of which we shall never see again. Again, my condolences to all of his family. I know he will be missed.

To the Margiotta Family,

I was so sorry to hear of the passing
of Joe. I knew him well, although we were on opposite sides of political arena, I respected him as a man and
his position in the community.

In sympathy,

Francis B. Boles

To Joe's family,
Joe was one of the great political leaders not only of New York but of the country. He was always a gentleman who loved his county, his state, his nation and his party. He built his power base on friendships
and his word was his bond. He will be missed!

To have known Joe is to never forget Joe. He had a sense of balance and political common sense that only a case of high blood pressure derailed him when he need the ethical reserves that made him and the Nassau County Republican Party New York's model of ethical dealings

To Joe's family,
Expressing our deepest sympathies to the Margiotta family.
Joe & I knew each other for many years and was a guiding influence for those who knew him.

So many memories--Dorothy and family our deepest regrets and prayers to all of you. Hofstra was an important of our lives and Joe and you contrituted to all of our memories--

Dear Dorothy,

Words cannot express the sense of loss I feel at the passing of my family's dear friend, "Joe M." (My father was always known as "Joe D.").

My fondest memories are of the early years when Joe and my father payed on the same ball team. I even recall your wedding announcement!

Joe was a loyal friend, loving family man, and community icon in Uniondale.

I will keep you, your children and grandchildren in my daily prayers.

With love,

To Joe's family:
Our sincere condolances.
Joe was a classmate of mine, graduating Hempstead High School in 1945. Joe was also instrumental in the planning of our 59th Reunion in 2004, which was well attended and lots of fun.
My husband, Conrad, played ball with Joe, when they both lived on Cottage Street, Uniondale, in the 40's. Joe was such a great guy!
Sincerely,
