FITZGERALD, Joseph 'Joe' - It is with great sadness that we announce that Joe passed away peacefully at Hospice Niagara on Monday May 8, 2023 at the age of 69 after a sudden and short battle with cancer. Beloved husband of 44 years and life long love of Jackie (nee Dean). Predeceased by his father Douglas, Joe will be deeply missed by his mother Patricia Fitzgerald. Cherished brother of Steven (Lorie) Fitzgerald, Cathy (Butch) Castagnier and Judy (Reid) Campbell. Brother-in-law of Sharon (Mike) Newing. Lovingly remembered by many nieces, nephews, cousins and cousins-in-law. Joe touched the lives of many people in the extended Fitzgerald and Dean families. He will be missed by his many friends, teammates, neighbours, and former TTC co-workers. A friend to young and old, he was a good listener and showed a keen interest in people's lives. Joe was a physical and emotional pillar of strength and was always willing to lend a hand to others. Joe was a long time slo-pitch player in Etobicoke, Mississauga and the York University Alumni League. Retirement brought Joe and Jackie to Niagara Falls and gave them opportunities to travel and play golf, pickleball, and volleyball together. If desired, in lieu of flowers, remembrances may be made in Joe's name to Hospice Niagara as they provided great comfort and care to Joe and Jackie in his final days. Our family cannot thank the staff at Hospice Niagara enough for their care and support. To all who knew Joe, he would appreciate that you follow his example in life and give time to those you love. Cremation has taken place. Friends are invited to join the family at the PATTERSON FUNERAL HOME, 6062 Main St. Niagara Falls, visiting Monday May 15, 2023 from 11-1 pm and 3-5 pm.
