Joseph W. Ross, 73, of Williamstown, passed away on Friday, September 6, 2024.

Devoted father of Melissa (Barry) Romeo. Dear brother of Catherine (Richard) Fiorile and the late Howard Ross Jr. Loving grandfather of Mia (Chris) Parise and Ava Romeo. Loving grandfather of Valerie. Loving uncle of Rachelle (Pete) Gluszek, Nicholas Fiorile and Jona (Luke Mickel) Fiorile.

Joe will be fondly remembered by his family as a loving father, grandfather, brother, and uncle. His greatest role in life was becoming a great grandfather to Valerie 5 months ago. Joe would tell you his biggest accomplishment in life was serving as a Commanding Officer with the United States Marine Corp.

Joe’s love for the simple things in life like going to the beach, fixing every car in the family or watching an Eagles game will never be forgotten.  He was deeply loved and will be dearly missed by all he has left behind.
