He is also survived by his soulmate, Jacki Farnese, and many great aunts, aunts, uncles and cousins which he loved like his own brothers and sisters. He left behind an endless list of friends. Joe was born April 5th, 1977; from an early age it was apparent how special he was. His charisma and love for everyone he met was abundant. Everywhere he went he spread laughter to brighten the day. Everyone who met him built a memory with him. A devoted family man, nothing made him happier than making memories with family. So much so, that in 2010 he started a successful wood shop, Tribeca Grain, in Jersey City from “scraps” of his family’s restaurant in NYC. Gone too soon, he will be remembered for his charming personality, ability to make you smile and his own unique phrases. He will be deeply missed by many but his memory will live forever in our hearts. Choops! Friends will be received Friday 3-8PM at the Ippolito-Stellato Funeral Home, 7 Two Bridges Road, Fairfield.
