David Redpath Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers from Dec. 6 to Dec. 10, 2022.
KINGSTON, David M. Redpath, 59, passed away Friday, Nov. 25, 2022. Born in NYC on Apr. 21, 1963 to David K. and the late Kathleen McVeigh Redpath.

David grew up in Briarcliff Manor, NY and graduated from Ossining H.S. where he participated in track and cross country.

Through his high school radio station, he developed a passion for broadcasting. After high school he became an on-air radio personality, first being hired by Bruce Morrow and advancing through ever larger radio markets from local suburban markets of NYC including K104 Poughkeepsie, FLY 92 Albany, Kiss 98.5 Buffalo as "Willie B. Goode", to Philadelphia's Q102 and CBS's WOGL, where he was known as "Joe Mama."

After his radio career he moved to Lake George, NY where he was an active member with the Knights of Columbus, a member of Hudson Headwater's patient advisory committee and lector at Sacred Heart Church where he also volunteered in the parish funeral ministry.

David had an abiding interest in photography and aviation. He enjoyed travel through the U.S., Europe, and Asia with his family.

He was the devoted father of David Nicholas and Vincent Joseph of Pennsylvania, whom he cherished and enjoyed walking them to and from school in their primary years. Brother of Karen (Jason) Caravaglia and uncle to Ryan, Gina and Justin of Virginia. He was beloved by many aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends.

All are invited to attend a Memorial Mass at St. Michael the Archangel Church on Monday, December 12, 2022 at 11:00 am. Relatives and friends are invited to visit with David's family prior to the Mass at 10:00 am.

We are so sorry to hear about your loss. Dave "Joe Mama" is and will always be a Philly radio icon. He grew up on the radio with countless loyal listeners. Over the years we collaborated many times. Wonderful memories of him as a person as well as his radio persona. May your tears soon be outweighed with smiles from all of the happy memories.
