Joey was a dedicated registered master plumber who owned his own business, Pittsburgh Backflow. He enjoyed hunting, karaoke and Pittsburgh sports teams. He was a loving and devoted son to both his mother and father, and a kind and loving person who would give the shirt off his back for anyone in need. Joey loved dogs but especially the late Winston, his beloved Boston terrier. Joey was deeply loved by all who knew him. He also leaves behind many aunts, uncles and cousins whom he adored.
