Yo Joe! I was sooo sorry to hear of your passing even though it was several years ago! You and your brother Angelo were always so cool at the FIVE OAKS SOCIAL CLUB. We had a lot of fun playing golf every Sunday at Green Lakes back in the 80's. You guys took me under your wing and taught me not only golf, but lessons in life. I admired how all the club members loved my dad (who I lost in 2018) and passed that down to me. I forgot you loved the Red Sox...so I'm glad you got to see them win a world series (FINALLY), but F U....go Yankees!...hehe!! I remember how mad you would get when you lost a 4 team ticket with 3 wins. The world changed my friend, but NOT your old friends. I wish you peace and happiness in heaven...and don't to forget to count ALL your stokes! Much love, your closest to the pin buddy...Joey LaBella RIP
To Mr. Caruso's Family: My husband and I met Mr. Caruso at the cemetery. He was a dedicated presence at his wife's grave since her death. We were always visiting my Dad's grave and decorating it like he was doing all year long, so we ran into each other a lot. The decorations he placed were always so beautiful. He was so friendly and pleasant and we could see he was in such pain living without his wife.
The last time we saw him was on Easter Sunday when we stopped to say hello and it was so touching as he had tears in his eyes.
I know you will miss him terribly but he is happy now with his wife in heaven and looking down on us all. I hope he gets a chance to meet my father.

Rest in Peace Uncle Joe. You were taken much too soon but at least you are with Aunt Louise again and she has her "my Joe" by her side once more. Say hello to Grandma and Grandpa, my mother and father and your beautiful sisters. Love you all so much.
Jeanette and Lou.
