    Junior was a wonderful man. We first met him and his wife at St. Edward’s. Later in life I had the joy of seeing Him almost every day at the Newark Senior Center where I worked and he enjoyed retirement and volunteered. Junior knew no stranger. He welcomed everyone with his beautiful smile and outgoing personality! He loved to shoot billiards and play cards and bingo. He was always the first to lend a helping hand and ask about my family. God has reserved a special place in Heaven for Junior. May he now rest in eternal peace. Our sincere condolences to his family and many friends. He will be missed! Hugs, Margrith, Dave and Dominick Reichmuth
