Joe Schiavo is ready for the next party. The South Philly native and World War II veteran who was known as “Joe the Butcher” at his former grocery store on Oregon Avenue, recently turned 100 years old. And he’s showing no signs of slowing down.
His family and friends celebrated his incredible accomplishments and longevity during a birthday party in September with nearly 80 people, where Schiavo drank (a few) beers and danced the night away.
