Joseph Barrett Obituary
It is with a heavy heart that I announce the passing of my husband Joseph Barrett, he was a cherished family member, a wonderful father and dear friend, who left us peacefully on May 24th.
Joe brought warmth and humor into the lives of all who knew him. His absence will be deeply felt by many but he will live on through the lives he touched. He is survived by a large loving family and many friends that will miss him greatly.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the American Heart Association in Joe's name.
