I am so sorry to learn of the passing of my cousin Joe. We were altar boys at Sacred Heart Church in Dover, NJ and, as we were growing up, our families spent time together. On behalf of my family, I want to express my deepest sympathy. Steve Zipko and my sisters Marie Hoffman, Eleanor Kehoe and Margaret Beach.

So sorry to hear about Joseph passing. I remember Joseph and I as young kids taking g a bus trip with our grandmother to Florida to visit her family there. Eating fresh grapefruit from a back yard tree. Going with a cousin to a bakery there and acting as orphan kids to get free donuts. Also had a fun time together. Rest in Peace, Joe
