People named Joseph Camelia

Some people were 'born to be ___'. My Father was born to be a DAD! Amazing sharp wit and infectious sense of humor! THE most Loyal, understanding, gentle and kind person BAR NONE! He was remarkably strong and determined! He was in an iron lung as an older teen, his parents were told he'd never live; He did. Then told he'd never walk again; He did. He appreciated every single day of his Life...probably the best thing you can say about a person after they have 'crossed over' is, WE enjoyed every day of his Life! Dad, if there's one quality I appreciate having genetically inherited from you, it's the WIT! Thanks!!! I'm keeping your smile intact and passing it on! Love and miss you!!!

An Incredibly talented pianist/organist. A loyal gentleman and family. The best 'Pop Pop' a kid could ever want! Very funny, witty and much loved! Wherever we went, he wound up meeting people he knew and making new friends too. He LOVED the ocean and boats...since I was a child he'd say "if I were 10 years younger, I'd get a boat and spend all my time on it." He never did get a boat, but he lived well and enjoyed Life to the fullest!
