Passed away at St. Joseph’s Hospital in Toronto on December 13, 2023, after a hard fought battle. Predeceased by his parents Thomas & Stella, siblings John (Jackie), Barbara and Gertrude.

Survived by his siblings; Grace, Margaret (Peggy), Thomas, Judy, Charlie, Mary, Carol Ann, Connie, Keith, and Donnie & numerous nieces & nephews.

In his younger years Joe inherited the responsibility of caring for his younger siblings, for which we are all enormously grateful. Joe owned his own Excavation business for many years. In the warm weather he loved to host gatherings at his home or cottage with his many family and friends and loved to hunt with his 2 nephews, who undoubtly have a few stories to tell. After his retirement, his passion was working on old cars and at times fixing any gadget that was broken.
