Our thoughts and prayers are with the entire Cappuccio family at this time. Uncle Joe was a great man and true patriot who helped defend and protect our freedoms. We always enjoyed listening to him talk about his amazing trips around the world with Aunt Connie. His love of family and service to his country will forever be remembered. Rest in peace Uncle Joe ! With Sympathy, Rick & Barbara Azzalina
