It’s very sad as myself and Joe were best friends growing up!
Joe was one of the sweetest and kindest guys I knew when I was growing up playing guitar in local bands. I had the privilege of playing music with him for several years in the Chicago circuit back in the mid 1980s. We lost touch after that, but he has always been in my thoughts as these were formative years in my life.
God bless Joe. My deepest condolences to his family.

My kids (Bella and Jacob) and I got to FaceTime with him just a couple weeks back, and he was still making us laugh and smile. He wanted to know how his grandchildren were doing, and wasn’t interested in talking about his own struggles with cancer. He even took the time to write a personalized birthday card for Jacob.
He was a man that put everyone else before himself, to the very end, and the world needs more people like him. Love you Dad
I have not seen Joey since highschool but he’s always been remembered for all the good times that we had back then. Our Rock n’ Roller classmate. Thank you for your friendship and sharing your talents with all us. Fly high Joey and rest easy.
