Dec 30, 1949 – May 25, 2023
Joseph J. Molinero, “Joe Mo”, 73, of Greensburg, passed away Thursday, May 25, 2023, at home with his family. He was a loyal husband, the best father, and a good man. Joe was born December 30, 1949, a son of the late Martin and Gloria Casale Molinero. He worked as a pharmacist for 41 years but his true passions were family and friends.
Joe’s favorite activities included bocce, golf, bowling, fishing, and cards. He was a proud member of the M&S Club in Jeannette and its Bocce League since 1972, and the Jeannette Italian Club. In retirement, Joe joined multiple bowling and golf leagues, and would humbly like us to mention that in 2019 he hit a hole in one. He was always down for a good time, quick to laugh, and cherished the time spent with his buddies, (especially when “in for seventeen”).
Joe is survived by his wife Janice, (and members of her loud and crazy family), his children, Daniel, Sarah, and Brandon; and his siblings Chris and husband Terry, Ed and wife Amy, all of whom loved him dearly.
Joe’s family would like to extend a special thanks to the health care professionals, friends, and the best neighbors who have been so kind and supportive.
There will be no public visitation. Joe’s family invites you to join them for the Joe Mo Memorial Bash, on Friday, June 23, 2023, at the M & S Club, 315 Cort St. Jeannette, from 3 to 8pm. The John V. Graziano Funeral Home Inc. Jeannette, is entrusted with arrangements.

Was so surprised to hear of Joe’s passing. Had been looking forward to seeing him at last week’s Duquesne/Sheik reunion. We were in the same pharmacy class together. I will always remember Joe doing his “funky chicken/funky turkey “ imitations at the Sheik parties to the enjoyment of the entire crowd gathered around him and clapping.
You are all in our prayers as we are so sorry for your loss.

I am so sorry to hear of Joe´s passing. Although I did not know Joe well, our mothers, Gloria and Dolores, were the best of friends, and I often heard of his successes through them. Sending deepest condolences from my family to yours.

It was my good fortune that Joe was one of the first people I met when I moved here from Butler in 1995. There here are 2 words that remind me of Joe. They are ABSOLUTELY AND NOPE! s.a. Joe do you want to get a beer? ABSOLUTELY! Joe do you think we should stay a little longer at the pharmacy to get things cleaned up? NOPE! So Joe! When I reach those pearly gates will you save me a seat at the bar? ABSOLUTELY! Rudy Mauro

JoeMo was and will forever be an all-time great. One of the nicest guys you'd ever meet. It was a privilege to have known him and to have him as a teammate. My condolences to his family. Enjoy that heavenly cup of beer while playing bocce. You will be missed.

Joe was a regular in our informal baseball games during the summer at Seneca Heights School and McKee Stadium. A great competitor and sportsman. Rest in peace, Joe. See you on the "Field of Dreams." Bring your glove!
