Joe was born in Paterson to the late Joseph and Anna. After graduating from Paterson High School, he was drafted into the US Navy, where he proudly served his country during WWII. Upon his return to the states, he met his future bride at the NJ shore; a place where the couple have enjoyed visiting throughout their 56 years of marriage. Joe worked for Allstate Insurance Co. for over 25 years. He could always be found tending to his vegetable gardens and playing his organ, but above all, he loved spending time with his family. Surviving are his loving wife Claire (nee Balon); his son Mark and his wife Dawna; his daughter Arlene Schwartz and her husband Michael; and his 3 adoring grandchildren, Christopher and his wife Esther, Amy Renne and Steven Schwartz.
