Joe was an old school solid guy. A good friend ,great dad and loving husband. I cherish the memories we shared while living on Henry St. My late husband John Raccuglia loved him. I can hear him now singing his doo wop. I will always remember his smile,laughter and warm advice. He married my friend Pat and together they created a family filled with love. I cannot say enough how loved he was and how so very much he will be missed. My heart is with Pat and her girls. I am sure he has a group in heaven and they have found an “echo”. With much love, Juanita

I am so sorry to hear about Joe.I was very close to the family as a teenager and young adult. His brtother Frank and I were great friends and I have only fond memories of Joe and the entire Vaccarino family that I loved only after my own. Joe and i  often talked about those days and the people we knew and the old neighborhod and the music Frank and I and others made in that apt. on Cheever Place where I have some of the most happiest memories because of joe and this wonderfull family that gave so much. I’ll miss him as I do all the Vaccarino’s.

Oh Loretta, Pat, Lisa, Mary and all of the Vaccarino clan…my heart breaks with yours over Joe’s departure. I know that his spirit will live on, but I wish he could have stayed on this earth a while longer. I will always carry fond memories of his singing, laughing, joking, and occasionally even putting me in my place 😉 He is a great man that will always mean a lot to me, and I know you will carry on his legacy for generations. I’m so sorry that I am out of town for the service today but you are all in my heart and on my mind. I pray that you find peace in his absence.
