Husband, Dad, Opa, Son, Nephew, Plumber, Pilot, avid rock collector; These are just some of the things that come to mind when picturing the life of Joe Guarino. 

His Charisma and big heart touched the lives of everyone lucky enough to meet him. Known for going above and beyond for his family name, Joe was always paying it forward such as buying strangers meals at restaurants & contributing to his local community. Joe could always be counted on to be there and make things right with 20 years+ dedicated to perfecting his craft.

Honesty, Integrity, compassion, work ethic, and self respect were some of his most valued attributes. “DO THE RIGHT THING, EVERY TIME, ALL THE TIME” are words that come to mind.

Plumbing, flying aircraft, and collecting rocks with his loving wife were some of his favorite hobbies and life passions: along with hunting, going out shooting any of his guns, camping, fishing, trips to the beach in the Family motorhome, and floating on the water with a cold beer in hand. 

Joe was the "town mayor" everywhere he went, with his infectious smile and magnetic personality. He will be forever and dearly missed by his surviving family and everyone whose life he ever touched. 

Thank you all for taking this time to remember him as the generous, caring, big hearted, thoughtful, and the intelligent man he was.
