Neva and Family,
I will always remember Joe for his hearty laugh and great stories! When his brother Tom was the QB--Joe was always "open' from his tight end position--and he would remind Tommy of that in the huddle!! Billy and I went for many rides with Joe and company up to the White Reservoir and to places I couldn't ever find again--he knew the back roads of Western Mass like no other!And finally the great times we had at Movie's house with Joe and Skippy and all the Rohans on St Patricks Day--memories for a lifetime! He was a larger than life guy who we always loved to run into on our visits to Dodge! Godspeed, Joe-Joe!

My deepest condolences. My memories of Joe go back to high school when he was the catcher for Andy, Mike, and others. All knew when Joe was around, a "robust" personality. Paths crossed occasionally in later years and although a bit more mellow, he always had zest and enjoyed interacting and reminiscing. Great guy !

I first met Joe while working at Mt Tom Ski Area.
We worked on the upper T-Bar together, and would ride shovels to the bottom of the hill at the end of the night. He was always upbeat and happy. Rest well my friend. My condolences to all of his family.
