“How’s your nose?” Joseph would humorously say when a young man visiting our house. We never asked why. Just loved the good cheer he brought to us. He and my brother Junior were brothers of the heart. He was one of those people who instantly put a smile on your face when coming into view. He’s touched so very many people with his deep faith in God and his children carry on the legacy of spiritual inspiration whenever they go. Hope the angels asked him, “How’s YOUR nose? when he entered heaven. Wishing the family comfort in time with the good memories. Joseph will never be forgotten.,

Deepest sympathy to the Cuoco family on the loss of Joseph. I know they will miss him as they continue on their journey, but I’m sure he will be with them in spirit until they meet again in glory. A favorite memory is brunch with Joseph, Herborg, Jeff and Laila at Ham Lake. It was a beautiful sunny day, made all the brighter by Joseph’s beautiful grace prayer and his sunny smile. May he rest in peace. Norm and Bobbi Allan

Pastor Joe was my pastor from the day I was born. He will always have a special place in my heart. This hurts my heart but I know he’s in paradise praising the One he lived his life for.

in loving memory of Uncle Joey. I was saddened to hear that Uncle Joey has passed away. Sending lots of thoughts and love to you all. May he rest in peace

In Loving Memory of Uncle Joey

It is with heavy hearts that we receive the news of Uncle Joey’s passing. He was a remarkable man whose life was a testament to the faith he preached and the profound kindness he shared with everyone around him.

Joey was more than a preacher; he was a pillar of strength and a source of genuine comfort. While he cared deeply for the spiritual peace of others, he possessed the rare gift of truly seeing the person in front of him. He was present in a way few are, offering a listening ear and a warm heart exactly when it was needed most.

We will never forget his thoughtfulness and the way he went the extra mile to make us feel seen and valued. Whether it was the phone calls after the loss of my father, or his unwavering support when my son passed away in 2020, Joey’s presence provided a sense of solace that we will carry with us forever. He didn't just speak of compassion; he lived it every single day.

He was a wonderful human being who has now truly returned home to God.

Our deepest love, thoughts, and prayers are with Aunt Herborg, Laila, Christina, Joe, Elisa, and their families during this difficult time.

With all our love,

Raymond and Annette

When a great man passes, the loss is felt deep- far- and wide. Just typing that brings to mind the song I learned when I first became a believer, and attended Pastor Cuoco’s church almost 40 years ago. “Deep & wide, deep & wide, there’s a fountain flowing deep & wide.” That fountain- that love of Christ bubbled up and flowed out of him in a powerful and wonderful way. Short of my own Dad, there isn’t a man I looked up to, learned from and respected more than Pastor Cuoco. He set the tone, the example, shared the truth and did it all in love. His legacy lives on in his amazing wife, children  and grandchildren who are living testimonies to the incredible husband, father, pastor, friend and man that he was. All my love to each of you- I’m crying for the loss of a great man I loved but also for the pain I know all of you- people I cherish dearly- are suffering through. May you find comfort in the arms of one another, find peace in the quiet moments and memories and help each other hold onto truth, your faith and love. Knowing  he would want that more than anything. ❤️❤️❤️

With much love- Shannon 

"Pop Pop" will always hold a special place in my heart. I have such fond memories of the times we shared during his visits to New Jersey...moments filled with his deep faith, his warmth, his laughter, and the kind of love that made everyone feel at home. What always stood out most was how deeply he loved his family. His grandchildren truly lit up his world and you could see the joy in his eyes whenever he was with them.

It brings comfort knowing that he is now with the Lord, at peace and free from suffering. 

Pop Pop, your love and the memories you gave us will stay with your family forever. I will watch over Elisa...I promise.

We will continue to cover your family with prayer during this difficult time. 

With so much love and sympathy to you all - Ali, Scott, Cole and Greyson xoxo

To the Cuocos…I love you all very much and I pray for God given comfort that lasts. I will never forget that smile of his. It made a difference even 40 years later. 🙂

Many memories that I could share. A fun one though, here we go.... I'd play video games in the basement till late at night while you were in your office next door. You'd be playing your guitar, singing SUPER LOUD, to the point it would move me to stop staring at a screen and go get my guitar to come play with you some nights. I was not very good but you'd give me the basic chords for me to follow in your Lead. Much like how you would give me advice in regular life while I followed the path you already paved for me as a man. Showing me the ropes of life Pop Pop. I'll miss that, I cherish it, you brought a lot of joy in my life through each phase (good or bad). Thank you, Love you

Dad, I want you to know how much you meant to me. You were a steady, godly example in my life, and I’m so grateful for the way you loved me and showed up for me — even in the moments when I didn’t deserve it. I miss your silliness, your bird whistles on my voicemail, the way you’d goof around with the kids and make them laugh. I miss hearing you play your guitar as you worshiped the Lord, pouring your heart into every note. Losing you has left a space nothing else can fill. I miss you every day. I love you, Dad.
