  2. We have such fond memories of Uncle Joe. Made himself available to help my parents, myself and my family so many times. When my daughter Kate was born he and my Aunt Irma came and stayed with my family for 2 weeks. It was alot of help. I will remember his advise, his humor, 4 1/2″ fingers and his love. What a life! 94 years 🤗

  3. So sorry to hear this, My heartfelt condolences! I remember Joe as a jokester!, always kidding around! I remember all the times he visited his uncle John, my father, John S, Granato, and they would be joking and laughing…… Many beautiful memories!! May he RIP! Love you cousin Joe! God Bless!

  4. Gatherings with the Castiglione family will forever be a part of my childhood memories. I remember as a child while our parents were in the house socializing, we kids — Robby, Joey, my brother Arnold Granato, and me, the bratty little sister — would be outside, riding the skateboard up and down the sidewalk late into the night, until my dad (Jesse Granato) and Joe would run out for some freshly made french bread. Such beautiful memories that I will always cherish. I love you, Joe.
