Joseph Nickolas Aliotti, passed away on May 1, 2016 with his family by his side at the age of 87. Joe lived in Pittsburg his entire life where he spent a lot of his time playing sports and at the Pittsburg Marina.
After graduating from Pittsburg High School he immediately went to work at U.S. Steel, a few years later he left to serve in the Korean War and upon returning went back to work at U.S. Steel where he worked almost 40 years.

Joe was an avid duck hunter for over 75 years, an athlete at PHS where he played baseball and basketball, and loved playing cards weekly with his Pinochle and Gin group.

He is preceded in death by his parents Nick and Rose (Mutulo) Aliotti, his brother Vince Aliotti, his daughter-in-law Robin Aliotti and his granddaughter Jeanine Nicole Aliotti. He was known to many as "Nano Joe," and will be missed by all who knew him.

I am sending my sincere condolences to the family. May you find comfort in this thought found at Isaiah 61:1,2 which reads in part" God sent his son to bind up the brokenhearted and to comfort those who mourn."
