Joseph Fischetti Obituary

Fischetti, Joseph born September 14, 1934-Died October 13 at age 81. Loving husband of Jane, devoted father to Angela (Michael) Scott, Theresa Farrell, Anthony and Giovanni (Yvette). Beloved brother to Zelli (Jaye), Bobby (Patti), John (Ellen) and Kitty Hall, he was preceded in death by sisters Delores and Cookie. Grandfather, great-grandfather, uncle and friend to many. Joe was happiest when he was with his wife of 60 years and his family. Joe was a civil rights activist in the 1960's and very politically involved. His interests were varied. He was an avid reader, poet, lover of art and HO gauge trains. Joe found his true calling with his photography especially landscapes of the west. Joe was a self taught photographer, and truly enjoyed teaching others. Services: Memorial service at noon, Saturday, November 7th at the Ethical Society, 9001 Clayton Road. Come celebrate his life. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Society for the Blind or West County Meals on Wheels.

It was my pleasure to work with "Minolta Joe" during the early 70's at St. Louis Photo. He was a very talented photographer.
