Joe Perricone's Obituary
Joe A. Perricone, 96, of Brandon, passed away Thursday, June 18, 2020.
Joe’s death leaves the Greatest Generation poorer for his loss. He left Hillsborough High School in his senior year to serve proudly in the US Army during WWII. He never regretted his service and yet reveled in his Class of ’43 graduation ceremony shared with the HHS Class of 2019. He lost his wife, the love of his life, Hope, three months ago. They weren’t separated long.
Joe is survived by his son Joe C. Perricone (Debbie); his daughters Dolores Perricone and Delia Palermo (Peter); and his grandchildren and great grandchildren.
In lieu of flowers, contributions in his memory may be made to Lab Rescue ([email protected]) or Southeastern Guide Dogs ([email protected]) in honor of his beloved Brandy.
He will be buried beside Hope in Garden of Memories Cemetery; 4207 E. Lake Avenue. His life will be celebrated at a later date and every time you honor the sacrifices of his fellow veterans of WWII.
