St. Joseph's Cemetery Sign

Joseph Franco's Grave Marker

This grave marker which is at St.Joseph’s Cemetery, located at
179 Hackensack Avenue Hackensack, New Jersey reveals that
Joseph Franco served in the U.S. Army during World War I and
died at the age of 83.

Joseph Franco would have been rather old to be serving as a Private during World War I at the age of 28.

Joseph Franco was not on the Original Honor Roll List, but this confirms his connection to Hackensack by being buried within its borders since passing and forevermore.

Your grave marker confirms your service for which we are grateful.
