Obituary

Joseph Donald Reese III, 54, of Darlington Twp., passed away Tuesday, April 23, 2024.

Born April 28, 1969, in Beaver Falls, he was the son of Joseph D. Reese, Jr. and the late Virginia (Kincade) Reese. Joe prided himself on being a provider and friend to his wife, being an extraordinary father, and a friend to everyone.

In his spare time he loved to hunt with his friends and daughter, spend time outdoors, create woodworking, work on “Betsy” his Ford Galaxy XL 500 and take it to car shows, ride motorcycles, play with his dogs, and garden.

He would give the shirt off his back for anyone in need, and was always willing to lend a helping hand.

Joe was a carpenter by trade and a member of the local union 420. With every project he completed, he prided himself on quality work and craftsmanship.

In addition to his father, he is survived by his daughter, Kaitlin (Traver) Reese Brognano; his wife and highschool sweetheart, Krystal Glass; two brothers, Richard Craig and Christopher Reese, Nephews Cody Reese, Richard Craig Jr., Nieces Morgan Bertram and Brittnay Mayhue, his best friend, Jeff Schriner, cousins, and other family and friends he loved dearly.

 

Not, how did they die, but how did they live?

Not, what did they gain, but what did they give?

These are the units to measure the worth

Of a person as a person, regardless of birth.

Not, what was their church, nor what was their creed?

But had they befriended those really in need?

Were they ever ready, with a word of good cheer,

To bring back a smile, to banish a tear?

Not, what did the sketch in the newspaper say,

But how many were sorry when they passed away?”

Friends will be received on Saturday, April 27th from 2-4pm and 6pm until the time of closing prayers at 8pm in the GABAUER-LUTTON FUNERAL HOME – 117 Blackhawk Rd., Chippewa Twp.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests that contributions be made in Joseph’s name to the National Wildlife Federation, 11100 Wildlife Center Drive,
Reston, VA 20190
