I met Joe one night he came into my auto shop with a flat tire. I didn't know at the time what a wonderful friendship that develop. Joe was a kind and unselfish person who has been an inspiration to my family. We will truly miss him, and he will be in our prayers and memories. God Bless. Joe Barnes & Family Lackawaxen

Joe was a very caring person. He spent time sharing plants with my wife and I. He knew a lot about a lot of things and was always willing to share information and his incite. He loved his community. I thoroughly enjoyed working with him. He will always be remembered because it is not possible to forget JOE GALANTE.

I met Joe around 1981 when we worked together in New York on a new Verizon application. He was always a good guy and I have many funny memories of our working and traveling days. I was thinking about him a few weeks ago and thought I had emailed him but maybe I just meant to. I will miss his quirky humor and interesting emails. I'm very sorry for your loss. Family meant a lot to Joe.
