Joseph O'Hearn III

Son, Brother, Uncle, Friend

What Joseph was like

My brother, Joe, was a very smart, handsome, and funny man. He loved his family, and was especially loved by his nieces and nephew. I learned that he helped many addicts in their recovery along the way, and was admired by many for his wisdom and wit.

How Joseph will be missed

I miss his sense of humor and the way he was with my children. I am terrified I will forget the sound of his voice and the feel of his hug.

How Joseph will be remembered

I don't think he would like to be remembered in a sappy way. He wasn't a mushy person. I think he would like people to understand the effects of addiction, and that he tried to impact those he met in a positive way and help people through their struggles whenever he could.
