Joe was born in 1930 in Hyde Park, Massachusetts, and was 1 of 6 children. He served as a senior Army member of the IEEE during the Korean War, and graduated on the GI bill from Northeastern University with an electrical engineering degree (1957). After moving to Connecticut, Joe worked for Southern New England Telephone Company for 35 years while he spent many happy years raising his family in North Haven, CT, and vacationing at their cottage in Mashpee on Cape Cod. After retirement, Pat and Joe moved to Mashpee, and wintered in Old Naples, Florida, where Joe would play an occasional golf game, walk the early morning beach, enjoy visits with his family, watch his beloved Red Sox, keep up with science and politics, listen to music, and ride his bike.
Joe will be interred in the Massachusetts National Cemetery in Bourne on Cape Cod, in a private ceremony at a later date.
