So very sorry to hear of Joseph´s passing. He was always so good natured and fun to be around. He was the sidekick brother to my good friends Mark and John. So many memories of the Soprano Family and their wonderful mother. Always joy at their home and the pool! Big part of the Bishop Hoban Family and Wilkes-Barre area. Prayers for peace and cherished memories.
