To my brother Joe God took you home at young age rest in peace from your brother  Grand Knight fr Olympia Council 394  always and Forever your brother and Knight Fr Gk Antonio J. Caniano  God Bless you my brother always and forever

Hello. I never met Joe. I am a  knight of Columbus in the Sherman Council in  Glendale, NY.
I  just watched the documentary and I was deeply moved  by it as I learned about the amazing life of Joe. I wish that I had met him. I see that he is buried in St. Charles Cemetery where my father and grandparents are buried.  I hope to visit his grave sometime when I am out there again. In the meantime, I will pray for and to him. God bless!

We never met either, Joe.  And if it hadn't been for the video the Knights did on you and me suddenly "stumbling" upon it, I would never have heard of you.  I'm convinced you were a very holy young man and are now a saint and that you are very powerful in heaven.   If you only knew how much I need your intercession and help.  Please, young man, help me.

Mr. and Mrs.  Reali and all of the Reali Family, pray for me too.  Thank you, and God bless all of you!

Hi Joe,  We've never met.  I'm watching daily mass on EWTN and Fr Joseph Mary Wolfe spoke about you in his homily.  What a beautiful soul you are.  I believe you are shining your light upon many more souls now than you ever could while on Earth.  I pray you and my son, whom we lost just 6 days before you passed from this life to the next, knows each other.  You will be added to my daily prayers.  Please pray for me and my family too.  Thank you and God Bless.  For the love of Jesus, Mary and Joseph, Ana Quintal from Hawaii

Joe, today is a big day for us and I know you are with us! 13 is your number and mine! Thank you for always praying for us. Please watch over all of us. We miss you. Your spark shall never go out. You have my heart. I love you

Joe. One of the happiest and friendliest kids in my Nurses' Office at Berry Hill. Thinking of you can still light up my face. You are Loved and Missed.

Always thinking of you.. Our world is so crazy right now and filled with turmoil.. Having the strength and pure goodness you had on earth, maybe you can help and guide us through hard times. Bless your family, friends and all of those whose life you touched. Rest easy Joe  Amen

I never had the pleasure of meeting Joe. I was at the cemetery today visiting a dear friend of mine and couldn't help but notice his gravestone a few headstones over. Noticing his picture caught my attention, he was so young, my age actually. I cannot fathom the pain involved in a parent having to bury their child, but I send my condolences to Joe's family and friends. I am so sorry for your loss. Just from reading everyone's messages and memories you have all shared, I can tell that he was a great person. Rest in peace ❤

Dear Lisa, Mike, and family:
We were so shocked to hear about Joe.  No words can express how our hearts are aching for you.  We remember a sweet, loving Joe who brought so much joy to his family.  We remember happier times preparing breakfast for our boys just before a football game and sandwiches at practice.  We enjoyed our times together.
May God grant you the strength to continue until one day He calls you Home to be reunited once again.  God Bless You All!
Love, Betty and Dan Mancini

To Lisa, Michael and family
We are so very sorry about the tragic loss of your wonderful son, Joseph. He was an exceptional young man raised by 
exceptional and loving parents. He is still here, nearby, part of your heart always, your special angel.  God is your comfort, he loves your family.
Steve and Joan Calascione

I want to say thank you for having had the honor of meeting your son. I pray to him and for your entire family.

“I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” – Maya Angelou

More than anyone else in Syosset, Joey made me feel at home when I moved to Southwoods in eighth grade. It's never easy being the new kid in middle school, but during my first couple of weeks in school, Joey went out of his way every day to show me the ropes and introduce me to everyone in the grade (easy, as he was friends with pretty much everyone). 

Even though it's been over eight years since we last spoke, I still teared up when I first read the terrible news. I couldn't sleep that night – I kept playing in my end my first week at Southwoods. I walked into campus at 7am on a Monday, nervous without knowing a single person. A week later, I felt like I had been a student at Southwoods for years thanks to Joey. Looking through the waves of condolences on here, I know I'm not alone in saying how extraordinary a friend and human being Joey was. 

My deepest condolences to the Reali family and all who knew them.

May God keep you always in his heart, as we will keep you in ours.

My Sympathy to your Family

Dear, dear Lisa and Michael,
There are simply no words.  No words I can say or write, because there are simply no words that exist.  My heart aches for you. Uncle Sonny and Aunt Theresa are holding Joseph now.  Hugs, and Love, and Kisses to all of you, Cousin Terri

Dear Lisa, Michael and family,
Words cannot express how devastated we are losing Joseph. We know God took him because he was pure goodness and love. We will never forget him nor will our hearts ever be the same. Thank you for giving us the blessing of knowing him and the privilege of loving him. Rest in peace our sweet boy and friend.

I must say that being at both Joseph's wake and funeral has made me realize what kind of young man he was. Seeing the sea of people that attended and hearing the most beautiful eulogies from his Mother, sister and brother was proof of the extraordinary life he lived. He combined humanity and spirituality in a way that a true Saint lives their life. Joseph was so devoted to his faith and did more in 25 years than people do in a lifetime. I personally did not know Joe but after yesterday I really feel like I do now. What an amazing young man with a heart of gold, so faithful and devoted to Catholicism. God Bless you Joe may you rest in peace in paradise. Guide your loving family, give them strength to get through these hard times. You have so much power now to watch over your parents, siblings. Nieces, nephews, cousins, extended family, friends and all the people that you had an effect on. This life will not be the same without you... I believe you have taught all of us to be true to ourselves, to live life to the fullest and never waiver  from our love or faith in God. To have no regrets! Rest in peace Joe, you truly lived a Saint's life. Im sure you were welcomed with open arms into God's kingdom.

Lisa and Michael we are deeply sad by your loss. May God give you strength to go on  in this difficult time,our deepest condolences.j

Our hearts go out to the Reali family. Rich took Joe as one of his best friends not a boss. I think they talked more than anything I always use to joke with Joe saying rich loved him more then me lol the endless stories that I hear from rich are wonderful! He def was a angel! May you rest in paradise! Again sorry for your loss!

Joe was truly the greatest man I've ever had the privilege of knowing.   Although his time here on earth was short, he touched more souls and did more good in 25 years than most do in 100.  I pray for the Reali family, who because of Joe is family to me now.  And like Joe truly great people.  Even though it saddens me deeply for the lost of a best friend should, Joe Reali was truly to good for the earth and I know he now rests in his one true home with Jesus Christ our savior in heaven.

My thoughts and prayers are with all of you. My heart is bleeding for your entire family. 
You are the most beautiful, and loving family I know. 
Your Brother was so handsome, and such a Superstar. I know how much you loved him, and how proud you were of him. 

I know God is taking good care of him for you. I pray God grants you peace, and helps you through this time. 

I love you all so very much. 
Lori Steck and family

Michael, Lisa, Luciana, Toni Marie, and Michael Jr.,
     I just watched the Funeral Mass on the computer - what a beautiful Mass (especially great homily)!  The priest spoke so well about our Catholic Faith, and how Joey lived that faith in his earthly life.  Again, please be assured of my prayers and Masses for you all.

Michael, Lisa, Luciana, and Toni Marie,
     I'm still shocked about Joey's passing, but I know that your'e strong faith will get you through this tough and very difficult time.  Let us all look forward to our final destination of Heaven where we WILL see Joey again.  Please be assured of my prayers and Masses for you all.

I am blessed to Have been friends with joe. Anyone joe met, he treated like family. Genuinely! This young man was so special, now I truly believe that God takes the good ones young.

so sorry for your loss

I have had the gift of knowing the Reali family for some time.  The family are the most wonderful, loving, spiritual, caring, beautiful people you could ever meet.  The wake of their beloved Joseph Mario was beyond words to describe.  I can say while waiting on the long line to pay my respects, I said to myself, I can't wait to see this Saint.  And there he was shining like the sun.  Joseph was a beautiful young man loved by everyone who had the pleasure of meeting and knowing him.  We all know he is in heaven and that he will be looking out for his beautiful mother, father, family and friends.  Joseph is in a far better place now and will be missed.  Joseph, child of God, you are a pure example of God's love and you will be missed, but your memories will go on forever.

Joe was the most genuine guy I ever had the privilege of knowing. His smile, laugh & positive attitude were contagious. He looked out for everyone & always made sure we had a great time with whatever we were doing. Although it has been years since I last saw his beautiful face, it feels like yesterday. He was an angel on Earth & is definitely an angel in Heaven. Joe was the absolute best. Until we meet again sweet boy, Rest Peacefully & watch over us all<3

One of the nicest and most genuine people I have ever met in my life.  Was deeply saddened by this news.  My thoughts and prayers go to you and your family.  God bless

Lisa and Michael

He will be truly missed. My heart and prayers go out to the whole Reali family.

To the entire Reali family,
My heart is so very saddened and shocked to hear the news of Joseph.  Know that you all are in my prayers.  Many condolences.

Joe,

You will be missed by so many of us that got left behind. You were a witness to our lives, not many of those left. I am so happy to have grown up with you, you were an inspiration to me. I was once told we die twice. Once when the breath leaves our body and once when the last person we know says our name. I'll carry your name until the end of my life. Rest in Peace, my friend.

God calls for those who are special He selects his beautiful Angels so they may touch far more hearts from Heaven then they could ever touch being here on earth! Prayers to the Family! May God Bless you Joseph May you rest in peace!

Joe was an amazing guy and my condolences to Mike and the rest of the family, he will be missed

We were not fortunate enough to know Joe personally, but are friends and neighbors of Luciana's. Such heartbreaking news, and you are all in our thoughts and prayers. May the Lord bless you with the peace that passes all understanding and give you the strength to carry on in the face of such tragedy. We are so sorry. Blessings from CT and the Formoso family.

I met Joe in Medjugorje a few summers back. He was a great guy and I will miss. I will pray for him and his family.  Kevin Travers Merrick.

My boy Joey. There isn't a single memory that we created together I will ever forget. We had some amazing times growing up together and I'm so happy you and I were able to spend our youth together. I love you my man, I still can't believe you've been taken from us. My heart will always have a place for you brotha. I love you so much and can't stop thinking about all of the amazing times we've had together. You lived a very happy life and no one deserved it more than you. Love u Joey, see u on the other side my dude.

To Mike and family.

I am very sad and shocked to hear that Joe passed away. He was a great person to work with, and a pleasure to know. My deepest condolences.

Mike I am devastated. You and your family will be in my prayers. Joe will be missed by many. May he RIP.

A Special, humble, young man and friend will be sorely missed!

Dear Mike and the Reali family,
My heart goes out to you. I was very lucky to know Joe and to be able to call him a friend. A great smile and such a positive person. He was a truly nice guy and will be so missed. My sincerest condolences to you and your family.

So sorry to hear such sad news. It leaves me at a loss for words. The Reali family will be remembered in my thoughts and prayers.

Joe was and always will be remembered as the kindest, sweetest soul we were lucky enough to ever know and be blessed to call a friend. There truly was no one like him - his laugh was contagious, his smile was infectious and his heart was made out of pure gold.  We are deeply saddened for the Reali family and will continue to keep you all in our thoughts and prayers. Rest In Peace Joe.

With Love, 
Loryn Boscia and Dan Barcavage

Special, humble young man and friend will be sorely missed!

Lisa and Michael
The saints tell us to show our love and faith  for God by "example",  and Joseph certainly forefilled that gloriously. With tearful filled heart I send you my love, Aunt Edith

Joe was the nicest person I have ever met. He never had anything bad to say about anyone, a true angel. We lost a great soul, my thoughts and prayers go out to him and the Reali family

One of my most cherished high school memories is with Joe. My seventeenth birthday fell during the school-week and most of my friends were too busy to go out. Joe and another friend surprised me, picked me up with a bouquet of flowers, and drove me all the way to New Hyde Park to have my birthday dinner at the original Umberto's, just because he'd remembered I'd never tried it and wanted that night to be special. There was no ulterior motive, no romantic intention, just an incredible friend looking to make that day special.

This is the embodiment of Joe Reali. Selfless, caring, kind, thoughtful, and an all-around gentleman. Having a friend do something so thoughtful for you is profound when you're a 17-year-old girl, and I will always remember thinking "this is how all guys should act." I stand by that statement today. The world would be better with more people like Joe, and although he is no longer with us, his legacy lives on in these memories. Rest in the sweetest of peace, my friend, you will not be forgotten.

Lisa and Michael. Our most deepest condolences on the loss of your son Joseph. No words can express the loss you are all suffering. May God bless you all. Harold, Michael and Liliana DeVellis Ouellette

May the light of beloved Joseph live within all of you always. Our deepest condolences to your family, heaven has gained a beautiful angel. May God grant you the strength to get through these difficult times. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

I am so taken back by this news which is truly unimaginable. My deepest and most sincere condolences to the Reali family. My prayers and thoughts for an exceptionally fine young man and his family.

I only knew your son for a short time but I knew he had a genuine heart of gold even though it's been a long time someone like Joe speaks to you and leaves a mark in your heart.  I will continue his memory and I am sorry for your loss, the world lost one of the good ones

To the Reali family,
 Joe was a blessing from god. I can truly say he was not human; he was a born angel. My heart goes out to your family.

To the family, I am so sorry for your loss, all of my empathy goes to you all.  To Joe, the days we played football together you were always helping me out, and years later I pay it forward like you did for me.  Thank you my friend.

To the Reali family, We were so saddened in hearing about Joe's passing. He was always the most respectful young man and he added so many smiles to everyone he came in contact with. All our sympathy to you and your family. The Breidbart family

When I first read the e-mail from Kyoshi Romeo I couldn't place the name to the person but now that I have seen the Memorial  site my heart is broken for you Mike and your family. Joe was an impressive young man and I always appreciated training with him. My deepest sympathies to all.

Mike and family, our thoughts and prayers are with you at this very difficult time.  Please accept our condolences for your beloved son. He was such a polite and respectful young man.  He will be missed. May he rest in peace and eternal be his memory.

Dear Michael and Lisa our deepest condolences to you and your entire family.  We are thinking of all of you and praying that you find the strength to carry on during this most difficult time.

With love and prayers,
Lorraine and Bobby Ruggiero

Dear Mike and family.

My sincere condolences to the Reali family. I knew Joseph from Berry Hill and was always touched by what a sincere and kind person he was. A true sweetheart.

So sorry for your loss and pain. Thinking of you and your family during this time

This is devastating. Mike, I am so sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers will be with you, your wife and family. May God grant you all the strength to get through this.

Joe was a role model to us all. One of the most kind, respectful, selfless, and caring people i've ever known. Meeting him at church at a very young age, and growing up with him was an honor. Taught people the meaning of kindness and respect through his own actions. He was truly one of a kind. My condolences to Joe's family, my prayers are with you. Heaven has gained an angel.

My condolences from our family to yours.  God bless!

Mike and family,
I'm stunned . I just heard the news and am devastated. 
My most  sincere condolences.

Though I didn't know him that long, I was happy to call him my friend and he will be missed. My deepest condolences to his family and friends.

Dear Mike and family, No words can express the sorrow we feel at this time. Please know Joseph and his family are in our thoughts and prayers.  God Bless you all.

I am so sorry for your loss, Joe was always such a gentleman. I will always remember him as kind and sweet as he was. My deepest regards.

Dear Lisa, Michael and Reali family,
There are no words that can express the loss of your beloved son, Joseph. Our lord will watch over him now.
With our deepest sympathies, Sue and Larry Clarke

Thinking about Joe, i was reminded of how important a part he and Michael Jr. played at my dad's funeral service. How comforting he tried to be to my boys and even to me. How much it meant that they took off from school to serve as alter servers. I hope we can provide that same comforts to you Joe's family now by posting our memories and condolences here forever. One other Joe story for now. How after a bad snow storm he came over to help Salvatore shovel us out. Such a good and giving person. Just like every child in this family. We love you all.

Mike and family- Sincerest condolences from Barbara, me, and your Tai-Zen family. Joe was so well liked and he will be missed by all of us

Lisa and Mike,   Our thoughts and prayers are with you and the family.
May our Lord comfort your hearts.

Rick and Janet  Matteo

Dear Lisa, Michael and family there are no words,  our prayers are with you all.  With deepest sympathy.  Stephen, Mildred Bellino and family.

Lisa and Michael,
Larry and I were so shocked and saddened to learn of your terrible loss.  You are in our prayers.  May Joseph rest in the Lord and may our Loving Savior walk with you all in your grief and bring you His peace and consolation .

Braccia Family & Debbie Graziosi

Dear Lisa, Michael and Family,
Our deepest sympathy.  Our love, thoughts and prayers are with you. The Miglis Family

Joey is an amazing person! Nicest, most caring guy I have ever known.  We have been neighbors for years and he was always helping his family around the house.  Every time I would see Joey around the neighborhood he would always wave hi.  Joey was a hard worker and had a passion for anything he put his effort into.  Joey you might have lived a short life but now your one of the Lord's Angels looking down on us from heaven.  You will be missed.  My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family.

Not having spoken to Joe in a number of years since our graduation, nor being particularly close with, he always seemed to come up in conversation about our home town. He stuck out as one of if not the sweetest, well-meaning and compassionate people I've ever had the honor of crossing paths with. Assuredly, there are countless others who feel the same. My condolences to his family and loved ones.

Lisa, Michael and family,
We have no words, so we trust and unite ourselves with your family in this moment of sorrow, through our prayers and in hope of the Resurrection where we we all be together again.  Joseph was a fine, happy, holy young man and a splendid role model for his generation. God bless him and hold him.
With love,
Ginny, Chris, Christopher and Connor Flatz

Joe, I haven't seen you since high school but i'm sure you hadn't changed. You will always be remembered for your big heart and for always having a smile on your face even in the toughest times. Rest in peace brother.

To the Reali family: Joe was one of the finest young men my wife Elsa and I ever had the pleasure to meet. Sweet, quiet, humble, with a mischievous smile that was always fun to see. He carved out a spot in our hearts that will remain forever.

You mean so much to all the lives you touched and I feel blessed to have met such a humble and inspiring example of a man of God, even if it was just once. The Padre Pio Prayer Group will be a memory I hold in my heart forever. God Bless all who grieve. Life has changed, not ended. Until we meet again, sleep with the Angels Joe! Heaven gained another saint!

We are at a loss for words- Joe radiated kindness and happiness- he will be remembered for his ability to always make others smile & for his heart of gold. We are so deeply saddened for the Reali family- our thoughts & prayers.

Joseph you have been taken way too soon from us, but I know you are in Heaven already an angel. We here are heartbroken but our faith will return you to us and us to you. Our sympathy to your beautiful family: Your parents Lisa, Michael Sr. and siblings Luciana, and her husband Ed, Toni Marie and her husband Rob, and Michael, who I know was always your best friend. We are praying for you all. With Love, MaryRose and Tony Colleluori
