Celebrating our 28th Anniversary!
We are dedicated to preserving and protecting Theodore Roosevelt's home in Oyster Bay on Long Island.
It is with a very heavy heart that we note the passing of our good Friend and former Board Member, Joe DeFranco.
Joe, 70, passed away peacefully at home on January 5, 2023.
Joe was a pillar of strength, a true friend to so many, and a man who did anything and everything for those he loved.
In addition to being a Friend of Sagamore Hill and former Board member, Joe was also a volunteer for many years at Sagamore Hill, proudly giving informative and entertaining tours of Theodore Roosevelt's Home.
He will be sorely missed by all those who knew him.
