Life story
Joe’s greatest accomplishment was his family. With 10 kids and 29 grandchildren, family gatherings were loud and entertaining! He loved babies and was always telling his 8 daughters, “Just have one more!”
He was a teacher and coach at St. Pius X for many years and helped develop countless young men and women.
He loved fishing, baseball, Mickey Mantle, golf, and American History.
