I am so sorry to hear of Joe's passing. My dad Peter would see Joe at 7 Eleven and they would have coffee and talk. Dad now has a cousin in Heaven to share coffee.

Joe was quite a character. I used to work at 7-11 in Keyport and he would spend time there having coffee and hanging with a couple of the regulars. He always said a line from the Honeymooners to me "Rachel, you´ve come back". Rest In Peace - I´m sure he is drinking a cup of coffee with St. Peter
