Joseph Micale Obituary

Joseph Michael Micale, 91, of Spring Hill, Fla., went to be with his Lord Tuesday, October 26, 2021. He was born in Milwaukee, Wis., and when he was a baby his parents moved to Clarksville, a little coal mining town.

While in high school, he had his own band and as the leader played the accordion. At the age of 17, he joined the Air Force and flew all over the world having retired after 21 years with the rank of master sergeant.

He retired after 20 years with the U.S. Post Office.

In his retirement years, he loved boating, fishing, kayaking and bicycling on the trails.

Preceding him in death were his parents, Rosario and Josephina Micale; brother, Tony Micale; and Patricia Ann Berry Micale, mother of his three children.

Left to cherish his memories are his loving wife of 24 years, Reba Ann Gully Micale; son and daughter-in-law, Steven and Minnie Micale; daughters and son-in-law, Pamela Parent, and Erin and Darryl Ciliberto; sister, Virginia Brichetta; five grandchildren; three great-grandchildren; and four nephews, two great-nieces and two great-nephews.
