Giuseppe "Joe" Affrunti, 65, passed in peace on Sunday, January, 13, 2019.

His devotion to his family and his firm belief in God supported him in his struggle and ultimately gave him peace.

Giuseppe was strong, hard working man who built an empire and would say "it's time to rollup our sleeves and get to work folks." He was kind, soft-spoken and always had time to answer a question or solve a problem, no matter how small. He is dearly missed by his loved ones, who celebrate the fact that he is at peace with his creator.

Giuseppe is survived by his wife, Cynthia Sharon, his children David and partner Angelina, Danielle and partner Eric, Dianna and partner Frankie; his grandchildren, Antonino, Victoria, Gabriella, Nicholas, Alyssa, Dominick, Alyson, Shane, Jonathan and Stella; his mother Marianna Lima, Father-in-law Joseph Alterio and loving friends. Giuseppe was blessed with a large loving family.
