I Worked at E257 in early 80s and heard all the great stories about Joe. Had the pleasure of meeting him at Firehouse parties and years later at “buffalo luncheons”. He was a true gentleman. May he Rest In Peace.

I knew Joe well from my days as an Auxilliary Fireman at Eng 257. He was a great fireman and a very accomplished musician. His band played at my wedding and people still talk about them today and how good they were. I always looked forward to occasionally playing with him. Rest in peace Joe.

I knew Joe (63 years ago in John Adams HS) I got him and his “Joevenaires Band” to accompany our group on Ted Steele’s American Bandstand (channel 11 WPIX) . I met him once again on the FDNY in the 60’s but lost touch. He played a great guitar. Good memories. Mutual friends —-George Pappa, Jay Ward (RIP) ,Gene Skelly (RIP), Harold McDonnell (RIP),Billy Monday, Babe Aronson, Roger Champagne etc.
