Obituary of Joseph Robert Manzi

Joseph Robert Manzi, age 46, of Fairview Twp., passed away on Friday, June 2, 2023. His truly generous spirit set him apart and made him a beloved friend to so many. He was the most loving and devoted husband, brother, and son. Above all else he, was the best dad ever to his two young boys. Whether it was playing catch or baseball, or wrestling in the living room, he played with his kids every day. He always cheered them on and you could find them many days of the summer driving around town in the hot rod or at a car show. Joe was dedicated to building his successful business and took great pride in his work and making his customers happy. He loved spending time in nature and hunting. There are honestly no words that can express how greatly he will be missed. The memory of his giving heart and infectious smile will stay forever in our hearts. Joe is survived by his wife Nadine, two sons Tanner and Trenton, parents Paul and Debbie, brother Anthony (Christin), nieces Olivia and Adaira, and many other aunts, uncles, and cousins.
