Joseph Bartucca Obituary
Joseph John Bartucca, 71, of East Haddam, passed away at home on the morning of Monday, November 18, 2024. Born July 5, 1953, in Bristol, CT; he was the son of the late Joseph Anthony Bartucca and Elizabeth (Quick) Bartucca Marselle. Joe attended Nasson College in Sanford Maine where he obtained his bachelor's degree in psychology. While he was a student, Joe would man the local college radio station as an announcer and part time DJ, this led to him and several other radio workers forming the SMBC (Saturday Morning Breakfast Club). Later on in life he and several friends would form similar groups out of an ironic sense of humor, one of the most notable being the Durin's Bane motorcycle club. Shortly after graduating from College, he spent time working in multiple restaurants, to working his way up to a financial manager for dealerships. In his spare time, he enjoyed watching his favorite team the New York Yankees, listening to music, collecting photographs, and spending time with friends and family. Joe is survived by his wife Laurie Bartucca; daughter Joelle Bartucca and her partner Adam Stanulonis; his sister Elizabeth and husband Normand Paul; niece Aubrey Paul and fianc Patrick Homer; his best friend of over 40 years Fred Hunt and his wife Pam Hunt and their daughter Heather Hunt; and numerous other extended family and friends. A celebration of Joe's life will be held in the spring/summer: to be announced at a later date. To sign the online guestbook please visit www.auroramccarthyfuneralhome.com

I just saw Joe´s obituary and I am sad to learn of his passing. I knew Joey, as we called him then, from high school. Al Driscoll, Diane Rudzinski and I werea few years ahead of Joe in high school. We all spent time together at Joe´s house where we enjoyed the company of his wonderful mom (who always made us feel welcome), step dad Frank, and, specially, his adorable younger sister `Beth´. My condolences to Joe´s wife, daughter, sister and families. Sincerely, Gail Doyle Geary

"JoeBar" was a great friend from Nasson and Durin's Bane. I will always remember our times together at WNCY, 91.1 on your FM dial, located in the heart of beautiful downtown Springvale Maine, blasting your way with 10 watts of music power!
We will miss you, Joe.
