The corner of Morris Park and Hone avenues, where Giusseppe Tevere owned Captain's Pizza for nearly 40 years, was co-named after him on Sunday. The new street sign displays the name “Joe Captain’s Way” – a name everyone knew him by. Tevere's wife, Josephine, says she thinks her late husband is "honored in a way that you can't imagine.”

“My husband will be memorialized forever and ever and that's what he meant to us, and that's what he meant to the community, and the outpouring of support just shows me how much he was really loved," she said.
