I am so sorry to hear of Joe´s passing. Our families were very close. I have such fond memories of Joe growing up and attending some of his functions at Cathedral high school with him. please accept our condolences for your loss.

Joe was a manager at the insurance company we worked for. We built a rapport and began sharing lunch together, sometimes via video call where I'd screen share the latest Late Show monologue for us to watch.
Joe became a dear friend and remained one once our employment together had ended. He always was a source for advise and/or support.

Joe and I acted as job references for each other, not long before his passing, which resulted in both of us being hired for the positions.
He would send my reference email the week before leaving us.
I'd later have his reference letter forwarded to my email (thank you Anthony), which painted a positive picture of my work ethic. I feel fortunate to have acquired it and will remain a file saved.

We lost quite a kindred spirit, and one sharp dresser. You're greatly missed.

Joe was a colleague for many years. My favorite memory is going out on his boat in Boston Harbor. He was such a gentleman and wonderful person. My condolences to Anthony and all who knew Joe.

On a boat on a lake in New Hampshire in 1985! At the time, I had not a clue that there'd be Knot A Clue!

Very sorry to hear of Joe's passing. As a small child our mom's were friends and later we both ended up at CHS. Joe was always a friendly person & apparently still very active into his adult life. My condolences to his husband Anthony, his family, & friends. - Sincerely, Nancy (Grimaldi) Kelliher

I sat next to Joe in homeroom at Cathedral High School in Springfield, Massachusetts. I haven´t seen him since we graduated in 1973 but all of the wonderful things said about him in his obituary and in comments to it were evident back in high school. He was fun loving, generous and very engaging - a great person to be around in high school! My sympathies to his husband and family. May he rest in peace.

Lucky to have spent time with Joe on Knot a Clue and Three Corners in Marina Bay and at his home in Fort Lauderdale. Such a kind, gracious, funny gentleman. He was a lover of life. Our deepest sympathies to his dear Anthony and the rest of his family.
