Joseph Santella

Dear Pam, Brother Pat and family. Sorry to hear of Joe's passing. I became acquainted with Joe on the job before I retired from the Stamford PD in 2001. We later became reacquainted at Bill's Drive-in in Monroe, at cruise nights for several years until I moved out of Connecticut in 2020. Always found great conversation with Joe and will certainly miss him. Praying for Joe and from you all, as you mourn your loss. Steve DeVito

My heartfelt condolences to Joe's family! We attended Saint Joseph's together. Joe and I had planned on joining the Marine Corps together ( On the Buddy Plan) and then apply to the State Police. My parents couldn't afford Central Catholic High. I went Brien McMahon. Joe became a State Trooper and I became a firefighter. Rest in Peace my friend!. Joe I can still remember the smell of italian cooking from Ely Avenue.

Oh my friend we are going to miss you! 30 years of friendship...you were a character...but a good friend...we have many fond memories of you and your antics...including Fink...rest in peace friend...oh and Barney says Hey Joe!!!

Pam and Santella Family May he RIP and the afterlife be welcoming.

I remember Joe snd his family from Ely Avenue in Norwalk. We lived right down the road from them. My Dad was Deputy Fire Marshal in Norwalk in the 80's and for many years was a member of the Norwalk Special Police. May he rest in peace

I'm very sad to hear about Joe passing away. I met him in the mid 1970s who were both starting our career with the Connecticut State Police as auxiliary troopers and we worked together many times. He was a very good friend. May he rest in peace

I met Joe at work, and he always made me laugh. We were both from Sicily and I enjoyed speaking to him in Italian, and sharing recipes. Sorry for his loss. Joe, RIP my friend, a piu tardi...

Restin Peace Joe
