Joseph Hollo Obituary
Joseph A. Hollo, Jr., 70, of Northwood, Ohio, passed away October 17, 2024. Born on December 6, 1953, Joe was a beloved husband, father, brother and friend. He was married to Karen (Honsberger) Hollo for 45 wonderful years, and together they built a life filled with love and cherished memories.
Joe was the proud father of two daughters, Mary (Tim) Unsinger and Stephanie (Brian Miracle) Hollo, both of whom he adored. He took great pride in his family. He is also survived by his loving siblings; sister, Mindy (Ken); and brothers, Gary (Anita) and Steve (Amy).
Known for his incredibly friendly nature, Joe had a way of making everyone feel seen. Whether at family gatherings, neighborhood events, or just running into friends around town, Joe never missed the chance to say hello and strike up a conversation.
Joe was an avid sports fan, fiercely loyal to The Ohio State Buckeyes and the Dallas Cowboys. Game days were an event in the Hollo household, where Joe's passion for his teams was infectious. He will be dearly missed but never forgotten by his family, friends , and all who knew him and will always be remembered on game day.
A celebration of life will be held at the Christ Dunberger American Legion Post 537 located at 4925 Pickle Road in Oregon, Ohio, on Friday, October 25, 2024, from 3 until 7 p.m. with a memorial service 5:30 p.m.

My husband and I used to live across the street from them for years and we used to play Hand and Foot card game with them for millions of weekend and had a great time

Dear Gary, Mindy, Stevie, Mary and Stephanie,
I am so sorry for your loss. Joe was a typical Hollo: kind and fun and nice to be around. I know you will miss that beautiful dad and brother. I am only hoping he floods you with brief glimpses of the time he made you laugh or the times you knew he really cared by the way he listened, and other times that only the two of you shared. Knowing that Joe is already enveloped in the love of your mom and dad and God, my prayers are that you will be so consoled by stories others tell and by those loving memories.
love always,
Dave

We always played Hand and Foot at Joe and Karen´s house or ours on Friday and Saturday night. Joe also got the ladder out in the middle of the street and shoot us the moon. Now those were the good old days.
