Joseph T. Walsh

March 28, 1944 - August 1, 2020

Joseph Thomas Walsh of Deptford, age 76, passed away from natural causes in his home on August 1st, 2020. Joe was born on March 28th, 1944, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He met his life partner, Josie (nee Tyciak) and married her on June 19th, 1965; they spent over 55 years together! Joe started his career as a longshoreman at Holt Marine Terminal in Philadelphia for 34 years. For the past 25 years, he worked at Franklin Square Village in Glendora, New Jersey as a maintenance man to help fund his insatiable drive for outdoor adventure. Joe’s biggest passion was hunting and enjoying nature. Whether it was capitalizing on a rare drawing of an elk tag in Wyoming, or his regular trips up to Potter County, PA with his friends, Joe never missed out on an opportunity to get outside and do what he loved. He is preceded in death by his sister Patricia. Joe is survived by his wife, Josie, his brother Charlie of Cape May NJ, his daughters, Linda Jowett (Timothy) of Gibbstown NJ and Tina Gonsiewski of Lebanon Township NJ, his grandchildren Noel, Walter, William, Jacob, Stephanie and his great-granddaughter Sophia. There will be no funeral service; instead, he will be cremated. His ashes will be split amongst family, while the rest will be spread about the mountains of Potter County, Pennsylvania – one of his favorite places on Earth. Joe’s family and friends will celebrate his life by remembering his kindness and the great memories they have of him and appreciating the positive impact he had on all of their lives.
