Joseph R. Morganti died peacefully in Wilmington, Delaware at the age of 93 leaving his wife of 60 years Palma (Petrucci) Morganti. He will be greatly missed by his daughter Patricia (Morganti) Achenbach, her husband Stephen and his granddaughters Margaret and Caroline along with his nieces and nephews. He is preceded in death by his beloved brothers Guido and Galileo, his sister Esther Peronti and his parents, Assunta and Guido Morganti.
