Joe was a proud union bricklayer and served as the President of Bricklayers Local 5 for over 50 years, a role that earned him the respect and admiration of his colleagues. His commitment to his craft and community made a lasting impact on those who worked alongside him. A devout music fan, Joe had a lifelong love for The Beatles, whose tunes filled his life with joy. His enthusiasm extended to his unwavering support for Cleveland sports teams, and he could always be found cheering them on. A passionate golfer, he cherished the time he spent on the course with those closest to him. Joe’s sense of humor and love of comedy were a big part of who he was, with a special fondness for shows like Hogan’s Heroes and Sanford and Son. Joe had a particular soft spot for Becker’s Donuts in Fairview Park, often making it a regular stop. He was also a familiar face at Gene’s Place, where he enjoyed spending time with friends and family.
Joe will forever be remembered for being the greatest comedian and story teller of all time.
