Joe worked diligently for over 42 years for the Railroad retiring as Signal Master. His joy and passion was found in the sea where he was USCG 10 Ton Captain, working on Charter Boats as a Captain and First Mate. He loved lobstering and fishing and he made sure to share that love with his two daughters and grandchildren. Every summer was spent going out on the boat with his two daughters and wife, listening to the same boat CD that his two daughters made him. Joe had deep summer roots in Humarock and Scituate Harbor, and was often known as Mako Joe.
