Fitchburg – Joseph A. Carbone, 78, passed away at home on October 8, 2018.
Joe was born in San Diego, California on December 5, 1939, son of Frank and Raffaela (Ciaccia) Carbone.

A 1957 graduate of Fitchburg High School, Joe continued his formal studies at Saint Anslem College and obtained his Master’s Degree at Penn State University; including the University’s Advanced Police Executive Development program.
Joe served on the Fitchburg Police Department for a total of 34 years. Servicing the Department as a Detective, he was appointed the title of “Permanent Full Time Police Captain” in 1992. Though he retired in March of 2007, his investigative work continued and in 2008, he was awarded the “Superintendent’s Commendation”, by the Massachusetts State Police, for his collaborative contribution that brought justice to a 1970’s, “cold-case” murder.

He was the owner of various race dogs and horses. Joe enjoyed traveling, community events, dancing and quality time with family and friends. His smile, adventurous spirit and joyful nature will be greatly missed by many.
