ReplyDelete"Shorty Joe Quartuccio fell last month resulting in a ruptured spleen and two broken ribs.
Also, happy belated birthday to Shorty Joe who had to, unfortunately, spend his 86th birthday
in the hospital after he fell. Joe is recuperating at home and we wish him all the best
and pray that God give him strength for a quick and full recovery. I would also like to say
Congratulations to Shorty Joe and his wife Jennie who are celebrating their 64 wedding
anniversary on April 21st! God Bless!"
Hope he's doing well. Thaks for the Bio you posted earlier. Always great for me to discover more about these musicians!
