Joey was always such a family man. He was so proud of his sons, nieces, and nephews. He loved spending time with my girls, and I loved watching them bond with their Uncle Joe. My girls fondly remember him “booping” them on the nose, which will forever be an “Uncle Joe thing.” We will all hold onto the fun memories we made with him—going to Cardinals games, trips to Six Flags, and so many more moments that meant the world to us. My brother was truly the best, and he will be missed. ❤️
In January my mom and dad took me to a globe trotters game and we had a magic pass so I got my ball signed and I met players and it was a good time.
Joe was very involved with his role as a Union Steward for BCTGM Local 103g. His commitment to his brothers and sisters did not go unnoticed and will be missed.
My dad will always be remembered as a strong, loving, caring person. There wasn’t a day that I came home and he didn’t ask how my day was. He was my first best friend and he will always be. I love you dad.
Oh Michael Wayne & family, I am so sorry, Joey passed. Sending my deepest sympathy & condolence to Joey's family, friends & all who love him. Godspeed Joey. RIP
