Joe,was such a special man in my life, you dont realize these things until someone is gone and then all the memories come flooding back. We 've had so many great memories of all the places we've gone together, the statue of liberty, various shore visits,the indian festival.etc. Joe seemed to always have a cheerful attitude, where others did not. I'll always miss his laughter. I'm glad and greatful to have had him in my life for so many years, and we'll miss him so very much, he was an exceptional man. Love and sympathy to his family, Pat and Sue Davis

I worked with Peps at Eakins-Groff Pontiac,Buick and GMC. You could alway count on Peps. He came in early, always stayed late and was the king of follow up,the keys to being a good sales person.He could tell a great story and knew how to cut a rug at a party. In later years we called Peps Columbo because he looked so much like Peter Falk.How could you not like Peps, he will surely be missed!

Joe was such a special man I had the privledge of working with him at Pellegrino he had such a kind soul. One of his greatest joys was spending time with his family he always bragged about his children and had great stories to tell us about his grandchildren when he would return from a visit with them. Even after his health started to fail he continued to keep his spirits up and always talked about wanting to come back to work. I will miss his smile his sense of humor and his generous spirit my heart goes out to all of you who that were fortunate to have Joe in your lives.
