IN MEMORIAM<br />
1985<br />
Joseph Sennese ’85 passed away on<br />
November 7, <strong>2022</strong>, surrounded<br />
by his loving family. Joe grew<br />
up working at his father’s paint<br />
company, Fancy Colours & Co. In<br />
2006, he brought his talents, work<br />
ethic, and industry knowledge<br />
to PPG Industries. Joe remained<br />
a part of the team during the<br />
transition from PPG to Vitro<br />
Architectural Glass. During his<br />
time at Vitro, Joe was able to<br />
teach, learn, and grow, and he<br />
formed many relationships<br />
along the way. Joe is survived<br />
by his loving wife, Shameem; his<br />
daughters, Grace and Hannah ’16;<br />
one grandson; and his brothers,<br />
James (Tonya) Sennese ’89 and Jason<br />
(Julianne) Sennese.<br />
