June 5, 1947 - May 16, 2024

Joseph Anthony Rizzotto, a lifelong resident of the area, passed away peacefully on Thursday, May 16, 2024, at the age of 76. Born on June 5, 1947, in Niagara Falls, he was the son of the late Anthony and Rose (Ciadella) Rizzotto. Joseph's early years were spent in Niagara Falls, where he attended local schools and graduated from Niagara Falls High School in 1965. That same year, he enlisted in the United States Navy. He served in Vietnam as an Aviation Structural Mechanic (AMS) aboard the U.S.S. Kittyhawk, and was recognized with the Navy Commendation Medal and a Bronze Star for his bravery and dedication before his honorable discharge in 1968.
Following his military service, Joseph dedicated 17 years of his career to working as a pipefitter at DuPont in Niagara Falls, retiring in 1995. He was an engaged member of the community, serving as a former Commander of the Frank F. Cadille Post 1664. Joseph's passion for classic cars and his cherished daily coffee gatherings with friends at Frankie’s Donuts were well-known and brought him great joy throughout his life.
Joseph is survived by his wife, Nancy (Anthony) Rizzotto, and his two daughters, Dana (Glenn) Morton and Lorraine (fiancé William Polson) Rizzotto. He also leaves behind his granddaughter Hailey, and his three siblings: Annette (Peter) Valenti, Rosemary (Henry) Barkley, and Margaret (late Philip) Martino, as well as several cousins, nieces, and nephews.
