Joseph Creasia Obituary

Joseph Joe Nick Creasia, age 79, passed away surrounded by his daughter and loved ones in Henderson, Nevada on July 26, 2016. Joe lost his life to a long battle with lung cancer but passed peacefully and comfortably in a Catholic faith-based hospital. Joe was born on March 25, 1937 in Milford, MA. to his parents, Nick and Mary Creasia. He was married to Diane Ramsey Creasia in 1958 and had one daughter, Debbi Shaw, who he loved dearly. Joe was a hardworking, driven man who worked as a baker at Wonder bread. He had a wonderful sense of humor and was a very generous, giving, kind man who wanted nothing but the best for everyone around him. Joe was survived by his daughter and son-in-law, Debbi and Tom Shaw, and their children, Logan, Chelsea, and Kendal. He was also survived by his great-granddaughter, Hailey, his sisters, Josephine Coran, Mary Ouilette, Angelina Saveria, and Dina Kutcher, his brothers, Anthony and Frederico Creasia, and multiple nieces and nephews. Joe was predeceased by his loving wife, Diane Creasia, on March 6, 1997 and eight of his siblings. The family will have a small, private service. Joe was a loving man with a kind, gentle soul and he will be sincerely missed by all. Those we love dont go away, they walk beside us every day. Unseen, unheard, but always near, still missed, still loved, and very dear.
