In Loving Memory of Joseph “Papa Joe” Arena

Papa Joe was more than a name. He was family, love, laughter, cherished memories, and a life that touched the hearts of everyone who knew him. His love and legacy will live on in the people whose lives he touched. He will be missed every day.

Papa Joe's journey with Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) brought challenges that many people never see or fully understand. PAD is a serious circulation disease that reduces blood flow to the legs and can threaten mobility, independence, and quality of life. It is also associated with an increased risk of heart attack, stroke, and amputation.

In honor of Papa Joe's life and legacy, we invite you to make a donation in his memory to the Global PAD Association, a

501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to saving lives and limbs.

Your donation will directly support patients and families across the nation through personalized PAD education, real-time patient advocacy, guidance in navigating care, and lifestyle support to help people living with PAD protect their health, mobility, and independence.

Through this tribute, Papa Joe's memory can continue to touch lives, offering hope, support, and a fighting chance to others facing this devastating disease.

Thank you for honoring Papa Joe by helping others.

With love, in memory of Joseph “Papa Joe” Arena.
