West Sparta- Joseph Corriea age 78, passed away on April 6, 2024, at his home surrounded by his family.

He was born in Fall River MA, on November 22, 1945, a son of the late Joseph S. and Mary (Medeiros) Corriea.

Joseph was enlisted in the United States Armed Forces following high school from 1963 until 1969. Following his return from overseas and his Honorable Discharge, Joseph became an Electrician. He worked for the Rochester Electricians Union #86 and later at Zeller Electric, where he met many life-long friends. He loved spending time outdoors, whether it was at the Dansville or Hornell Gun Clubs, or hunting and fishing. He loved riding motorcycles, especially his Harley Davidson.

“Joe was well known for his fun, charismatic personality. He had a passion for people and could always strike up a conversation. To him, there were no strangers, only friends he hadn’t met yet.”

He is survived by his children: Mark, Joseph (Robyn), Christopher (Rachel), and Stacey Corriea; eight grandchildren: Abigail, Amber, Stephen, Shane, Dylan, Bethany, Benjamin, and Devon; sisters: Lucy, Louise, and Joan.

The family will honor his memory with a quiet farewell and kindly request no service be held. Arrangements are by the Hindle Funeral Home, 271 Main St., Dansville. Online memorials may be left at HindleFuneralHome.com.
