Joseph Kochiss

I had the privilege of having both brothers as my Teacher. I will never forget them. They were the best Teachers anyone could ever have. RIP I just thought of so many happy memories ring In Their class.

We were unable to reach Joe by phone andjust found his obituarynotice today. Such a loss. Jack and Joe (we will always think of them together) werean amazing gift to anyone who knew them.They were full of life and joy;enthusiasm and creativity. It was always apleasure to be with them. They were wonderful guests bringing laughterand music to every occasion. It was always a joy to be in their home and seetheir books,pictures, paintings and hear their stories. We will alwaystreasure Joe's memory...

Bless you, my dear friend. You are now in heaven with St. Thérèse like we so often talked about. You will be missed.

No one can ever replace the amazing person Joe was - he was the Renaissance man

Rest in peace Joe, I will forever cherish the memories of Pleasure Beach. You and Jack were always there, at the cottage next door. The Kochiss family were good neighbors to the Boros family.

I have the honor of being the a student of this fine teacher. I had the honor of being in one of his theatrical players in “Who’s mummy are you”. I was grateful for his instrumental help in forming a ski club in our school. And was honored that he chose me as a student to help a new teacher acclimate herself on arrival to a new school that we are attended. He was a man of great intellect that I wrote books in place but also invented many games that were bought by Milton Bradly and other...

Both Joseph and his brother were the best teachers and always respected!! so sorry he has passed RIP. Pattie Gunther Haselman

I'm so sorry to hear about the passing of Mr. Kochiss. I was a student of his in Stratford CT. He and his brother were amazing people and were both such wonderful role models for students. Always inquisitive and interested in Art & Music. They both always had a great interest in so many things and seemed to live life to the fullest. May he rest in peace knowing he lived a life well lived. Linda Montecalvo, Westport, CT

So sorry to learn of Joe's passing, John's as well! They were both such beautiful and engaging folks. May God Bless them and those of their family at this difficult time. Very sincere sympathy goes out to all.
