Joseph Patrick Cardamone

Mr C was my elementary school substitute he was always welcoming and helped raise a fine family , which I had the honor in my childhood to play with the boy matt Chris Kyle, we played sports sun up to sun down grace street park playground was where we balled. My deepest condolences to all. Also Mary Ellen had such a calming voice when I got a chance to talk to her. The plot section wouldn't be the same without the cardomones and company. I got to sit down with Mr c and friends last time I drove by and he invited me and of course with a guy who had such a good heart I was happy to sit down with our neighbors

Please accept my most heartfelt sympathies

Dear Mary Ellen & children, Cardamone & Holmes Family:
I am so saddened to hear of Joe's passing. You are such a beautiful loving family and your love for Joe will be your strength in days to come. Please know that you are close in heart at this time. I'm so very sorry for your loss. Blessings to your entire family.

The Cardamone Family is as close to me as any neighbors and friends can be. I regret hearing of Joe's passing and pass along my sincerest sympathy to his wife and children. Also, to Jimmy, my friend and class-mate through the years of growing-up to graduation from Tech in '62, and Jim and Joe's brother Dominick, whom influenced all of us greatly. A generation of our families spent the beginning of our lives in the "Bulls Head" section of Scranton. Farewell to a member of a very special brand of Italian-Americans who lived to make a lot of people happy and proud!

Joe, the memories we have of you are awesome. My Dad, Al Sakovich, was your dearly beloved mentor and mourns your loss so much on his 89 th birthday. I am his eldest daughter, Joanne, and YOU, just being a nice guy, turned me in to the dad as I cut my last class at South Catholic to go and see my boyfriend from Prep pitch against THS.. I was in so much trouble when I got home, because YOU just happened to spot Cheryl and me at the Kresge's soda fountain passing by. UGH! Lotsa laughs now, but all our memories of you are so heartwarming and belly laugh funny... RIP... Sweet man.

North Scranton Junior High's Finest!!!
Fly with the angels. You will be truly missed.

Rest in Peace my friend. I think Blackie said it all.

'Baseball Joe' - a solid STHS student-athlete and an all-around standup guy. Being a few years younger I knew of you a lot more than I actually knew you, but definitely looked up to you as a person with many admirable qualities. Individuals like you who remained true to their roots by sticking around Scranton and the region deserve special plaudits for your essential and selfless contributions without which our NEPA communities would not endure. Godspeed, paison.

Dear family members,

I knew Joe since junior high school and he never changed. great guy who will be missed.

Mary Ellen and Family, We were so sorry to hear about Joe, Please know you are in

Joe was a big influence in my life encouraging me to always do better. He was fun loving man who maintained a special integrity. I'm sure he will be missed by all. I know he holds a special place in my heart. My sincere sympathies to the family.

Mary Ellen & family,
I worked with Joe at Putnam & am proud to have been on his team of "Mighty Nighties". He was a great leader and boss and I'd remembered fondly. May he rest in peace.

Cardamone and Holmes family,

It was honor to know someone like Joe. He was a great person who was always smiling and upbeat. He was a great person who will be dearly missed. I am so sorry for your loss. Your in my prayers.

Remembering the times in Bulls Head when we were all young. R.I.P. my friend, the world is diminished by your loss.

Mary Ellen and Family, I am so sorry to hear of Joe's passing. Its been many years since our paths crossed in the 70's however I still recall his bigger than life smile and personality. He could light up a room. We had good times at Yankee games. You are in my thoughts and prayers at this sad time. With deepest sympathy, Michael Hamilton

I met Joe at NSJH. He was one of the good guys, always smiling, and kind hearted. So sad to hear the news of his passing away.He was one of those people that even if you haven't seen each other for years, he made you feel like it was just yesterday since he saw you. My thoughts go out to his family.

My buddy,my pal, you never had a bad thing to say about anyone. You love talking about the past.Even though we are miles apart I always felt connected..I will see you in heaven.
I know you are in heaven..love you man.

'Our family has friends, songs, laughter and memories that no wealth can buy'. "Cardamone".... definitely one of the most generous, consistent contributors to our laughter, song and cherished memories. All of Scranton is in our prayers ... especially you Mary Ellen.

Mary Ellen and Family,
"Love leaves a memory no one can steal"
You are in our thoughts.

I grew up around the corner from Joe and his family. He was a great kid and grew into a caring individual. He will be missed by all. Prayers for his wife and children, that God will bring you comfort and peace as you celebrate his life.

I am so sorry for your loss. Hook was a great guy, our class of 1970 , Red Raiders , was better because of him. You are in my thoughts and prayers

My deepest sympathies to the family. My son and I had the pleasure of working with Joe. He was a wonderful man and always had his families best interest at heart. He was a comforting presence in a sometimes very hectic and emotional business. All my staff mourn his loss, everyone loved him. We will miss you dear friend. Rest in peace.

Such a good man. So sorry for the entire family's loss.

I met Joe when we were both "non-traditional" students at The University of Scranton in the late 70s and early 80s and we graduated together in the class of '81. There are not many non-traditional students who fall in with a group of friends, but there were six or seven of us, including Joe's wonderful wife Mary Ellen, who studied and hung out together when we weren't working. Joe, with his larger than life smile and personality, was the one who brought and kept us together at that time. I'm thankful that we reconnected during his mayoral bid last year and were able to talk about the great times we had back then. RIP my friend! My deepest condolences to you and your family, Mary Ellen.

Joe will be missed. You and your family are in our prayers during this difficult time. He was always the calm voice in a hectic city hall.

Mary Ellen no words can take away your grief right now; know you are in our prayers and thoughts. Keep all your memories close and he will always be near you. With much saddeness and sympathy.
