Joseph Paul Kiszczak, a beloved husband, father, grandfather, and friend, passed away on September 29, 2025, in Phoenix, Arizona. Born to Joseph and Lorraine Kiszczak, Joe was raised in a classic “Leave It to Beaver” household, where his curiosity often got him into trouble as he eagerly took apart household appliances to understand how they worked.
Joe shared a special bond with his sister, Jackie, who introduced him to her best friend, Macrina. Their love blossomed into a beautiful partnership that lasted 36 years, blending their families and creating a loving home together.
A passionate hobbyist, Joe dedicated his time to building car motors, RC cars, RC airplanes, tractors, and radios. His unique interests even included collecting troll dolls, showcasing his playful spirit. Known as the helper in the lives of those around him, Joe’s generosity and kindness touched many.
He is survived by his loving children, Candice Kiszczak, Carlos Pineda (Bridgette), Nick Pineda, Yvette Cross (Cedric), and Vanessa Pineda (Victor), as well as his cherished grandchildren: James, Christopher, Fernando, Carlos, Sarah, Reuben, Bryan, Adrian, Ray, Christopher, Brittany, Alexis, Victor, and Cameron, along with many great-grandchildren. He is also preceded in death by his daughter in law Sylvia.
Joe will be profoundly missed by all who knew and loved him. We love you and will miss you always.
