Joseph's Story
Life
Been a long time......
A few years ago we moved from Orlando, Florida to a farm in the Midwest (just outside of St. Louis) where we started a family. Our first child, Gracie was born in October 1999 and Joey Jr. was born in August of 2001. Sophia was born in January of 2005 and just found out we are expecting number 4 -
I own a few internet / mail order companies and my wife Jill runs the restaurant and bakery on one of her families farms.
Found out a year ago 5/2002 - Our little guy has a rare genetic disorder called Williams Syndrome - Had open heart surgery among a handful of other surgeries in the past year. He is one amazing little guy.
*****UPDATED 3/2007***********
So now we have 4 children - Gracie (7) - Joey Jr(5) - Sophia (2) and Mia (6 months) - Life is crazy but we have a blast. My house is very loud - lots of dancing and duck, duck goose these days -
We are still living in the midwest and I have become a bit of a St. Louis Cardinals fan (Still a Yankee at heart) - Got to go to the final game of the world series which was a highlight - We have been spending some time in our new...Expand for more
condo in Ft. Myers, Florida - a safe place to travel to since it has all of the necessary baby items to keep the kids entertained.
I still own my own business (2 actually) - we have nearly 25 employees and I work with some wonderful people who are like family to me.
*****February 2008*****
I know some of you who search for Jill and find me are like "what the heck". Sorry about that - Just easier managing one of these.
Jill is now one of the owners of Eckert's with her brother Chris. Chris is president and Jill and Chris's wife Angie are VP's of Eckert's. They all work a ton and are usually there. Jill is still always smiling - I do let her know who stops by and signs the guest book. If you send a message, she is sure to get it.
****June 2008******
Coolness - I was recently asked to appear on CNBC's The Big Idea With Donny Deutsch! In April Jill and I flew out to NJ and stayed in Tenafly - crazy driving though Leonia again. I got to speak for about 10 minutes on my business and our "success" - an incredible experience - I heard from people around the world - family, friends an new friends.
