My deepest sympathy to Becky and the rest of the Incandela family. I remember Joe as always an open, friendly, warm and giving person. He was always willing to help and offer kind words. Becky should remember me from when I lived on Dearborn Parkway in Chicago when she and I and Susan Curran were friends for a while. I was so saddened to learn of his passing. I had recently become a member of the Columbian Club and was hoping to renew my friendship with him. Ernie Rossiello.

I extend my deepest sympathy to the Incandela family. I am a former neighbor from Erie Street in Chicago. I recently became re-united in friendship with Richard and learned of Joe's passing. My heart goes out to you all. I remember Joe to be a great person, as were all his siblings. Be comfortated in knowing he is now with the Lord.
