L'amour au fil des décennies

Love Through the Decades

Joe had a special love for Shriners Hospitals for Children – Boston, a love that can be traced back to 1970 when he first came to the hospital as a patient, just two years after it opened. When he was twelve years old, he ignited a firecracker surrounded by his brother, sister, and other neighborhood friends and sustained extensive burns across his body. After receiving care at the Boston Shriners Hospital throughout his teenage years, Joe came back to the hospital as an employee in 1985 to share his love for the organization. He worked as a health unit coordinator on the acute care unit. In this video Joe shared a few special memories of his many decades at Shriners Hospitals for Children – Boston as we celebrated our 50th anniversary year. Sadly, Joe passed away in October 2021. He is deeply missed by his Shriners family.
