Joseph Edward Gaschler, age 91, passed away peacefully on April 13, 2026. Born on September 21, 1934, Joseph lived a long and adventurous life defined by his love of the sea and devotion to his family.

A skilled boat captain, Joseph spent countless years navigating the waters he cherished most, particularly throughout the Caribbean and the Florida Keys.

His legacy sails on in the hearts of all who knew him.
