I didn’t know Joe had died. The photos from Anna are a wonderful reminder to me of the great times we shared. The picture of the Polish group was at my brother’s home on Lake Erie.. Joe’s surprise 60th birthday party . And the one with Artek is in the living room of our home on the river. My family and I loved Joe ( and Babcha) for a moment in time. It was wonderful while it was meant to be. I agree with all the posts above. Joe had a good heart and cared for others more than himself. May he rest in eternal comfort and peace Heather

My deepest condolences to all his friends and family. He played at the entrance to our reception for our wedding. He was over at my Dad's house frequently when everyone was healthy. Joe will be missed by many. Sincerely, Chris & Helen Redko

So much enjoyed playing with Joe and the band. He was a real entertainer when he hit the stage. He always told me at every gig we played that he needed a couple shots to calm his nerves before getting on the stage. So I obliged him and we did a couple shots before every gig and when we were ready to start, and he picked up that accordion, the stage was now his domain. There was one time I remember, when he was playing the song "Corina Corina" (a song he just loved to play), that when he stretched out those bellows with his left hand, he knocked the trumpet off my face. That's the type of player he was - all in - all night long. So many other good memories of a really good man .............. may the Lord keep his soul,

Joe and I met in 1978 while working together at Bandex. Joe was a kind, gentle and loving person. We shared a nice friendship over the years and he'll remain in my heart forever.

Joe made many lives very happy being an entertainer with his band and solo with his accordion. He played at weddings, dances, communions, carousel of nations, private parties. Watching him play his accordion with such gusto looked just he was making love to his accordion. Many times with his curly hair and a lock of it would fall forward could have been Elvis twin. Being a part of the polka boosters a group of us would follow him where ever he would play. Many happy times and memories. Joe lived his life just the song says …I did in my way.
