He was born on March 22, 1985 in Fort Smith, Arkansas to Connie (Dake) Sabatucci and Joseph Allen Sabatucci, Sr. and passed away on May 8, 2023 in Poteau, Oklahoma. He was preceded in death by his father, Joseph Allen Sabatucci; brother, Micah Joseph Sabatucci; paternal grandparents, Vincent and JoEllen Sabatucci; and maternal grandparents, Howard and Louis Dake. Joseph was such a blessing to our family. He knew nothing but love and happiness. His favorite things to do was being around his family, friends and caregivers. Joseph always smiled. It was not just a small grin, it was a full, wide open mouth kind of smile. It never took much to make him smile whether it be a soft voice, or a ride in the van. Joseph loved Sunday mornings at Church. Pastor Jim coming to him and saying “good morning Joseph!”
Love is like a balloon, easy to blow up and fun to see grow. But hard to let go and watch fly away!
