Joseph J. Tunno, 86, of Hanover Township, passed away Wednesday, July 21, 2021, in Weirton Medical Center. He was born March 11, 1935, in Pittsburgh, a son of the late Biagio and Clara Morelli Tunno.

He was also preceded in death by his sisters, Rose Smarrella, Esther DeSantis and Marie Dunn; brothers David Tunno, Alfonso Tunno and Angelo Tunno.

Joe was a member of Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church, Burgettstown. He was a United States Army, Korean War veteran, and a 1953 graduate of Burgettstown Union High School.

He loved golfing with his brother-in-law, John Dunn and the Seniors Golf League at Woodview Golf Course.

He previously was employed for 25 years at Atlantic & Pacific Tea Company (A & P Grocery) at the McDonald and Burgettsown locations. He then retired from the railroad at Weirton Steel Corp. However, he always remained a produce guy!
