Joseph Anthony Tarallo

Joseph Anthony Tarallo Our precious Joey passed away on Saturday, December 25, 2010 after a courageous battle with cancer. Joe left us on Christmas day to join Jesus on His birthday and celebrate in His kingdom for eternity. He was born in Middletown, CT and moved with his family to Florida as an infant. He grew up and attended schools in Jupiter and spent his adult life in the construction business as a skilled carpenter learning the trade from his beloved father. Joe made friends with everyone he met and loved helping others. He loved his family and friends unconditionally and brought joy and happiness to all. He was a member of Christ fellowship and enjoyed spending his time serving the Lord. Joseph is survived by his beloved children, Justin, Jessica, Jason and Crystal Tarallo and Alexa Ciccerone; his mother, Joyce, brother Michael; sisters Vicki (Kevin May) and Angela; nephews Michael Chestnut and Joe Everette; and a beautiful new grandson, Gentry Andrew; his soul mate Darlene; and dear friend Heath Moan. Many aunts, uncles, cousins and friends, too many to name. And of course his constant companion, his dog Thunder. He was predeceased by his beloved father Melchiore (Mike) Tarallo who is holding him now in his arms. Special thanks to Dr. Edit Tolnai and staff, the nurses and doctors of the Oncology Floor and Foshay Cancer Center at Jupiter Medical Center, Dan Brumer of Tequesta Drugs, Dr. Barry Miskin and the nurses of Hospice of Palm Beach County for their love and compassion throughout Joe's illness.
