Annie, Maryann, Philip and Judeanne, We are so sorry for your loss. Joey B was a wonderful man, and we have so many fond memories of him. The Watervliet gang always loved being around him, especially my Mom and Dad. They often mentioned how loving, caring and funny he was. He could even get my grandmother to laugh, and, as we all know, that was not an easy feat. He was a joy to be around. Once again, we are so sorry. Mike and Annie Comis

Dear Aunt Anna and family I always loved going to my Uncle Joes and aunt Anna's house in my childhood years. Aunt Anna was so careing and sweet, Uncle Joe was always so animated and funny.Their house had that homey feeling and I enjoyed spending time with them and my cousins. It was great to see uncle Joe and the family resently at my niece's wedding. Seeing him the day before he passed,he still had his unrelenting humor. With Loving Memories and Prayers, In the name of our Lords Jesus Christ Jackie
