Happy 49th Anniversary to Sister Josie & Brother-in-Law Joe!

Cecile and I send love across the miles as Josie and Joe celebrate 49 years of marriage.

Cecile and I married on March 25, 1977, and Josie and Joe followed five months later—two marriages, one year, 49 years of memories.

Josie, my younger sister by five years, remains a strong part of my Hoboken roots. Joe, a mostly Irish guy who married into our Sicilian family , didn’t just survive—he thrived and became my brother and “bro.”

Over the years, we’ve shared

unforgettable adventures with my late brother Michael (Kenya, Zambia, Botswana), Steve (Costa Rica), and Joe and I, South Africa, and Cuba

From Hoboken to Rutherford, NJ, the years have flown.

Happy 49th Anniversary, Josie & Joe! Cecile and I love you both and wish you many more healthy, happy years together.

Irish luck + Sicilian love = 49 years and counting!
