Joseph J. DeMarco, Jr.

Joseph J DeMarco, Jr. (Joe) born August 20, 1957 passed away on Thursday, June 1, 2023, at 65 years of age after a 10-month heroic battle with Pancreatic Cancer. He was the beloved husband of Donna Louise "Weezy" (née Stasiorowski), loving father to Lauren Brady (Edward Brady) and Tara Hozier (James Hozier), and proud PopPop of Eddie and Owen Brady and James Hozier, Jr. "JJ". He was the adored brother of Donna Pannebaker, Cathy DeMarco, Suzanne Long, and Michael DeMarco. He was a devoted and loyal friend to many. Maintaining relationships was very important to him -- personally and professionally. He was a proud alumni of LaSalle University where he received his Bachelor's and Master's Degrees in Finance. After college he began work in banking (Commonwealth, Citizen's and Wells Fargo) where he continued to work until diagnosed with cancer in July of 2022, shortly before he was planning to retire. He loved riding his Harley Davidson motorcycle, listening to music while enjoying a glass of wine with his wife on the front porch, and spending quality time with his family and friends. He was loved by so many and he will be deeply missed.
