With a very heavy heart i say goodbye to a good freind and better person. I worked with Jos for the better part of my 28 years at GE Medford. No one worked harder than Joe with never a complaint. He would also jump in to help anyone that needed it. I have never met a man more generous with his time than Joe and I am sure i never will. To say Joe was one of the good ones is a huge understatement as he was a great one. I will miss you my freind
With a very heavy heart i say goodbye to a good freind and better person. I worked with Joe for most of the 28 years i spent at GE and no one worked harder than Joe. He did whatever needed to be done and never complained. He would also help anyone he knew with his time and effort after work. I have never met a more generous guy in my lifetime and i doubt i ever will. Until we meet again my freind.
It is with a deeply broken heart that I write this.
I meet Giuseppe when I started working at GE in Medford in 2016, and instantly we became friends. We shared a passion for Sicily, the Italian lifestyle. He had a sense of humor, a smile and way about him that made everyone around him feel welcome, at home.
I would ask questions about Freemasonry and he would leave little breadcrumbs for me to figure out, and that lead to more questions, which lead to more breadcrumbs. Finally, Giuseppe said to me one day you're ready to be a mason.
He was my mentor, one of my best friends, and like a 2nd father to me. He attended my daughters wedding, my family was heartbroken to hear of his passing, I still can't believe it... Giuseppe, please know that you were loved, and will be dearly missed by your adopted family !!
Giuseppe Lanzerotta — a man for all seasons and a friend forever! Thank you for sharing your love and helping so many others everyday of your life.
Thank you for being YOU…always!
Love,
Phil, Toni-Ann, Payton & Presley Privitera
Our condolences to Maria, John, Carmela and their family. Giuseppe/Joe was an unbelievable person. Always upbeat, always ready to help solve a problem, always ready to help out. As longtime Treasurer of the Augusta Boston Club, he was a driving force in the stability of our Club. A person we could always count on. Joe will be sorely missed by all our members.
Rest in peace Giuseppe, your work on earth is completed.
Joseph Morello, ABC past president
and Martha Morello
I worked with Joe for all the years he was with GE, no one was more dedicated to doing his job right than Joe. He was also a true gentleman, an absolute pleasure to work and socialize with. I thought Joe was gonna live forever, because he was so full of life. I really loved Joe and I’m so sad to hear he’s gone. I’m attaching one of my favorite photos of Joe, he was so proud that day!
