I meet Joe at B’ham High School, and will never forget him; along with visiting his home and tasting his Mom’s home cooking with some friends. He was very big, warm, funny, loud... and nice to be with, even more so after his stroke. After his stroke he would make sure my Mom & I had a place to watch the B'ham parade with him, and communicate on his chalk board. My sincere sympathy to his family and loved ones. Joe’s style will be missed.

I met Joe in 1st grade and enjoyed him and his antics thru those years at Assumption. When we got to high school I lost track of him, but never forgot him. My thoughts and prayers to his family.

Hey Joe, I sure am gonna miss you my friend. I first met you when I was a cashier at the BGO. You grew on me and we became friends. You couldn't stand pennies,,,no no!! LOL. You always tried to sneak up on me when I was working, and if I caught you before you caught me we would LAUGH!!!! So Hard!! If you agreed with something that I said, the first thing that came out of your mouth was"OH YEA!!!!" :) Thanks for introducing me to The House Of Orient. Vietnamese food..SPICY. And most of all for caring so much, despite all you have been through. I Love You Joe. Love, Lisa Michel

My thoughts and prayers go out to Joe and his family and friends. I knew Joe for quite a few years and he was quite the cook! He had that smile and twinkle in his eye that could bring a smile and a laugh to all in the room. I will miss Joe-he is probably at the beach in Koko Mo!

I met Joe in 1987 through a freind Ronnie Cola that worked with Joe and was also an entertainer.Joe worked for another good freind at the time Linda Martinelli Whom he was working for when he had his stroke.Joe and I became good freinds very quick as we both liked to chase the women.Ronnie and Joe had a Mini-sprint they raced at the time which I thought was not safe(It was built out of water pipe)I talked them into building a new one with DOM Tubing (As strong as Chrome-moly) and we did that.Joe was a very hard working guy with a great big heart and a whole lot of fun.I was lucky to be able to see him a few days befor he passed>He did not know of his future at the time,but I knew he was very ill and I think inside he knew it,but did not show it on the outside.I just like all of you will miss Joe.We wish his loved ones well.I want to thank Linda and Butch for keeping me in the loop.

Having known Joe my entire life, as he has been a lifelong friend of my fathers; he was the most lively and virulent person I have ever known. He made any place seem like the place to be. Fancy convertibles, Hawaii and Bouillabase; I will always remember him with a smile. Heather (Lukes) Whalen

To Joe's family: Thinking of you during this sad time of Joe's passing. He was such a wonderful daily customer at Bellingham Grocery Outlet, we will all miss seeing the sparkle in his eye, his smile and wave, as he made a point to do each time he visited and shopped there.
