Loving Gramps to Jamie (Miriam), Dustin (Bree), Stephanie (Colin), Samantha (Brayden) and Nonno to Mason, Alessia, Shayla and Fawn. Joe loved visits from all of his family and always looked forward to our yearly Ferretti family reunions in the summer and at Christmas. Joe had many careers in construction, real estate and working with disabled adults at Amity Goodwill. He also loved the many fishing trips he did at the hunt camp as well as the fly-in trips to Nakina.  He enjoyed the Toronto Blue Jays and his beloved cats.  The family would like to thank the staff at Joseph Brant Hospital on the 6th floor who made his last couple weeks very comfortable.
