Joseph P. Pishinsky's Obituary
Joseph P. Pishinsky passed away on March 3, 2024, at the age of 96. Born on April 29, 1927, in Munhall, PA, retired from US Steel, Joseph lived a full and vibrant life that touched the hearts of all who knew him.
Joseph is survived by his children Joanne (Adauto) Rego and Jay (Carol) Pishinsky; siblings Evelyn Kowalski, Rita Jones, Patricia Martin, and Steven Pishinsky; nieces and nephews Charlene, Tony, Ronnie, Linda, Kenny, Keith, Sherry, Mark, Lynn, Carol, Duane, Karen, Krissy, Ray, Cindy, Rick, Leslie, Scott, Kimberly, Stevie, Laura and Amy.
He was preceded in death by his wife Martha, parents August and Katherine, siblings Anthony, Helen, Adolph, Frank, Stanley, William, Catherine, Mildred, Bernard and Regina, nephew Dougie and nieces Connie and Charlene.
Joseph's life was marked by a profound love for the simple pleasures. He could often be found with a fishing rod in hand, patiently waiting for the next big catch, or with his nose in a book, lost in the pages of history. His passion for the past was not just a hobby but a way of connecting with the world and understanding the present. A strong Democrat, Joseph never shied away from a lively political debate, always ready to share his insights and stand up for his beliefs. He also enjoyed sports, especially boxing. Joseph also enjoyed exercising throughout his life.
