My heartfelt sympathy to the Celenza family. I just found out about Joe's passing late Friday night. Some of my memories of him are "watching the Bears games", and coaching them loudly through the TV. He also enjoyed his unsalted popcorn and fresh string beans, that we sometimes all snapped together as kids around the kitchen table. I remember Mr. Celenza, as a kind Dad, softspoken at times, warm and funny. My thoughts and prayers are with you all, at this very difficult time. Sincerely,

What a great person Joe was. I loved hearing stories about the good times he had with my dad when they were younger. (Their trip to CA and the guy at the gas station.) He was so warm and loving and kind. I will never forget his visit to my dad in the hospital before my dad passed. I know how painful it must be for your family. Love to all of you.

Joe was a gracious person with a warm heart and smile. Of all the years - we will recall his visits to South Florida. Lou will miss his friend and those trips to Tarks. He was a big fan of the St. Joseph's Dinner at our church. We always enjoyed our dinner dates and visits with him. Our thoughts and prayers are with Carmella and his lovely family.

From the family of Guy "Vince" DeSantis our deepest sympathy to your family at this time of your loss. Joe was a
good Boss and Friend to my dad, and remained that way even while my dad was in a home. He came to see him, and didn't forget him. It's ironic how I just said to my children about a week ago, that I was wondering about Joe, I hope he went peacefully. Vince's daughter Jackie - 10735 Forestview Road, Countryside, Il 60525
