Joseph William Mahony of Greenwood Lake, NY and Okeechobee, FLA. A retired employee of International Operator Engineers of NY, Entergy of Buchannan, NY and an Army Veteran passed away November 30, 2020. Son of the late Jack and Audrey Mahony, he was born on March 6, 1943 in Staten Island, NY. He was a loving husband, father, father-in-law, grandfather, brother, uncle, and friend. To most Joseph was a man of few words with the biggest heart. But to his family and friends he was full of kind words, quick with a joke and enjoyed playful banter with those around him and a vast range of knowledge that he always shared. The banter between him and Jackie was great to experience to see and the love they shared with 50 years of marriage. His grandchildren were his pride and joy and did all that he could for them. He is going to be missed very much by all! He is predeceased by his son, John Jacob; his parents, Jack and Audrey Mahony; granddaughter, Amanda Van Doran; brother, John Mahony; and aunt, Marguerite Mahony. He is survived by his wife of 50 years, Jacqueline Mahony; daughter, Dawn Van Doran and son-in-law, Christopher; grandson, Robert Joseph; granddaughter, Kyle Nicole; brother, Robert Mahony (Ellen); sister-in-law, Terry Mahony; brother-in-law, Philip Schadt (Brenda); brother-in-law, Michael (Jeanne); sister-in-law, Kathleen Moore (James); brother-in-law, Albert Schadt; and many nieces, nephews, cousins, great nieces, great nephews, and many close friends.
