Publish in a newspaper

Joseph Michael Graham, 56, of Washington Boro passed away on October 3, 2025. He was born in Columbia to Vicki and the late Marshall Graham and was a lifelong resident of this area.

Joe was a graduate of Penn Manor High School with the Class of 1988 and was a truck driver for his whole career. He was happiest spending time with family, eating good dinners – especially Red Lobster, and driving to the beaches of Ocean City, MD. Joe had a good heart and would help anyone in need. His kindness, humor, and gentle nature touched anyone who knew him.

Joe leaves behind his wife of eighteen years Jean Graham; four daughters, Brianna, wife of Jedd Nye, Adrianna, wife of Ryan Conner, Emily and Erin; five grandchildren; his mother, Vicki Graham; a sister, Mechell Craig. He was preceded in death by his father.

A Mass of Christian Burial will be held at 11:00 a.m. on Thursday, October 9, 2025 at Holy Trinity Catholic Church, 409 Cherry St, Columbia, PA 17512. The family will receive friends for visitation beginning at 10:00 a.m. until service time. Burial will follow at Holy Trinity Catholic Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to Hospice and Community Care, 685 Good Dr, Lancaster, PA 17601.
