Joseph Tiberio Sr., age 80, of Milford, beloved husband of Joan M. Tiberio, passed away peacefully on December 13, 2020 in Milford Hospital with his loving family by his side. Joseph was born in Introdacqua, Abruzzi, Italy on May 20, 1940 and was the son of the late Domenic Sr. and Felicetta Tiberio. He was a proud Veteran of the United States Army and National Guard. He received a degree in Mechanical Engineering and retired from Northeast Utilities as Regional Facilities Manager. Joseph enjoyed hunting and fishing in Lake George, spending time with family and friends, had the ability to fix anything and was known as the “go to guy” and “a true car guy.” He was always willing to help others and had the patience of a saint. In addition to his beloved wife, Joan, of 56 years, Joseph is also survived by one son, Joseph Tiberio Jr. and wife Denise of Milford, two daughters, Mary Colella and husband David of Guilford and Jennifer Tiberio of Milford, five grandchildren, Olivia, Joey, Tori, Jessica and Cody, one brother, Domenic Tiberio Jr. and wife Mary Beth of Newtown, one sister, Angelina Meloni of Trumbull and several nieces, nephews and cousins. Due to the current health situation, all services were held privately and a celebration of his life will be held at a later date. Arrangements were entrusted to the Galello-Luchansky Funeral Home, 2220 Main Street, Stratford. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made in Joseph’s memory to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, 262 Danny Thomas Place, Memphis, TN 38105.
