Joseph Ludwig Obituary
Born March 15, 1965, in Pittsburgh, he was the son of Joseph Manion Ludwig Sr. and Ann Craig Ludwig of Ellwood City, formerly of Pittsburgh.

Joe dedicated himself to teaching art at the Central Valley High School in Monaca, Pa., for the past 21 years where he shared his amazing artistic vision with the students he taught. He was an avid outdoorsman who enjoyed hunting and fishing and had a daredevil spirit for the extreme. Joe was also a very active member of the Hungarian Club in Zelienople.
