Joseph Guilo Buoniconti's Obituary

A man deeply committed to his family and country alike, Joseph served honorably in the military for many years. His pride as a soldier was matched by his unwavering loyalty and faithfulness to Mildred—his partner through thick and thin.
Joseph had an infectious sense of humor. Beyond his jovial spirit lay an extraordinary talent for craftsmanship; he took great joy in building birdhouses.
He enjoyed Italian Heritage. Loved music and his dog. He was an excellent handyman.
