Joseph “Joe” Kane, 70, of Quakertown, PA, passed away on April 5, 2025, at St. Luke’s Upper Bucks Hospital. Born in Philadelphia, PA. Joe was the son of the late Martin Kane and the late Gertrude (Gibbs) Kane. Joe will be dearly missed by his beloved wife, Mary Frances, they shared 53 loving years together and 48 years married; his children, Erin Gero (Thomas) and Kristin Rider (Eric); his grandchildren, Brianna, Jacob, Tommy, Sophia and Reagan; his siblings, Elizabeth (John), Kay Pratt (Jim), James Kane (Pat) Mary Seltner (late Charles), and the late Rose Flynn, Martin Kane, John Kane, George Kane and Theresa Hoffman. He will be sadly missed by his extended family including nieces and nephews.
Joe worked at Bricklayers & Allied Craftworkers Local 1 PA-DE as a craftsman for 40 years and he remained an active member there after retiring. Joe enjoyed fishing, hunting and playing in his band “On Fire” where he played the guitar. Joe was always the life of the party and always ready to have a good time, but never ready to leave. He was happiest when he was playing bingo scratch offs, mowing the lawn, listening to music and spending time with family and friends. He enjoyed playing instruments and could learn to play anything you handed him. Above all else, he was a devoted husband, father and grandfather.
