Joseph was working as a server at Hilton Garden Inn Camden Waterfront Philadelphia in Camden.  He was a lifelong sports fan who especially loved the New York Giants, soccer, and wrestling. He enjoyed watching games, talking sports, and sharing that passion with those around him.  Joseph had a deep appreciation for stories and imagination, often found reading comic books or watching Marvel movies. Flying his drone was another favorite hobby, giving him a chance to explore and capture the world from a different perspective.  He also enjoyed cooking and trying new foods, whether preparing a meal or sitting down to enjoy one.  Joseph’s life, though brief, was full of color, excitement, and heart. He will be missed by all who knew him.
