Joseph Anthony Natale

B Oct. 3, 1955 D Nov. 23, 2025

Youngest son of John J Natale and Josephine (Matrazzo) Natale

Survived by his two brothers, Philip and John.

Attended St. Peters K-12, Mohawk Valley CC.

Emigrated to Chapel Hill NC where he took his enjoyment of collecting, into the
business of buying and selling books wanted by collectors and institutions.
Joe(y)'s success eventually resulted in his opening the "Avid Reader" bookstore and
moving into the appraising of private libraries and collections, attracting requests from
the estate of Maya Angelou among others.

Later years saw chronic illness catch up with him, restricting his movements to a
minimum.

His remains will be interred with our Mother and Father. No services are planned.
