Joseph Francescone's Grave Marker

 

This grave marker which is at St. Joseph’s Cemetery, located at
179 Hackensack Avenue, Hackensack, New Jersey reveals that
Joseph Francescone served in the U.S. Army during World War I and died at the age of 71.

Joseph Francescone was not on the Honor Roll List which was in
The Evening Record newspaper in October 1918, but this confirms his connection to Hackensack by being buried within its borders since passing and forevermore.
