Joseph Orisich Obituary
Oct. 20, 1933 - Jan. 8, 2021
SOUTH BEND, IN -
Joseph M. Orisich, 87, passed away on January 8, 2021. He was born October 20, 1933 to the late Frank and Mary (Pallatin) Orisich.
On December 14, 1968, Joe married the love of his life, Joyce Ridenour. They had 46 wonderful years of marriage before her passing in 2015. He was also preceded in death by son James, three sisters, and three brothers.
Left to cherish his memory are grandson, Chris Orisich, one great-grandchild, and numerous nieces and nephews.
Joseph proudly served our country in the Marine Corps and was Honorably Discharged on May 5, 1955. He loved his wife and family more than anything. He had a kind and generous heart toward everyone. He enjoyed working outdoors and kept an immaculate yard. He will be dearly missed, but there is joy that he will be with his beloved wife Joyce again.
Per Joe's request, cremation will take place. No services are planned at this time.
