Notes:

Another devoted servant of God has passed from this Earth and is now rejoicing with our Lord and Savior in Heaven. Joseph S. Candella, III, 41, of New Martinsville, WV, and formerly of Wilson, NY, passed away unexpectedly on Sunday, September 26, 2021. Born in Lewiston, NY, he was the son of Joseph S. Candella II and the late Bonnie (Simpson) Candella.
Joseph was a graduate of Wilson High School.  He played football at Wilson, as well as Cortland University.  He returned to Western New York and earned his Bachelor's and Master's degree in education at Buffalo State.
He was currently employed at Short Line Middle-High school in Wetzel County, WV as a history teacher. God's gift to him was his passion for education.  Joseph motivated his students to learn. Joseph was especially fond of the World War II era.
Joseph was a born-again Christian, who devoted his life to Christ. He was an inspiration to us all. Joseph loved his family, pets, and friends. Above all, Joseph centered his life around his young son, Joseph S. Candella IV, "JoJo" who we know will miss him dearly but will take comfort in knowing his father will always be with him and guiding him throughout his life.
John 3:16
In addition to his son, Joseph S. Candella, IV and his father, Joseph S. Candella II, he is survived by his sisters, Joelle Sebring and Nicole Phillips; his nieces, Lauren and Kelsey Phillips, as well as many loving aunts, uncles, cousins, and numerous friends.
