Joseph G Lenzo, 84, of Easton, PA, joined the Lord on Sunday August 5, 2018 in his home, surrounded by his wife, children and grandchildren.

Joe was born in Sant'Angelo di Brolo, Sicily on August 25, 1933 to the late Francesco and Antonia (Ricciardi) Lenzo.  He spent his teenage years in Oceanside NY and joined the US Army in 1956.  After being honorably discharged from the Army he married his childhood sweetheart, Josephine (Prestipino) in June 1958 and moved to Easton.

Joe ran his mason contracting business out of his home providing construction services throughout the Lehigh Valley and in New Jersey until his retirement in 1996.  The home he built in 1961 has been the scene of many happy birthdays and holiday celebrations over the years and stands as a testament to the quality and strength of Joe's trade.

He loved playing golf and tending his large garden and fig trees from which he fed his family and friends. He always found time to watch his grandchildren's sports including soccer, lacrosse, baseball, volleyball, flag football, and basketball; and shared his cheers for the Mets, Giants and Rangers. Joe was a member of St. Anthony of Padua Catholic Church, Easton where he served as Sacristan and Eucharistic minister; he was a member of the Holy Name Society, Golden Age Society, the Sons of Italy, the Easton Area Community Center Board and he served as the leader of the church's pro-life group.

In addition to his wife, Joe is survived by sons Frank and wife Jayne, Michael and wife Michelle, and his daughter Donna Kraft and husband Scott; a sister Sarina Maniaci; his ten grandchildren: Matthew and his wife Heidi, Marc and his wife Gianna, Marissa Neal and her husband Jonathan, Angela, Jessica, Courtney, and Joey Lenzo, Alex Kraft and his fiancée Paula, Sarah, and Lindsay Kraft; his great grandson Antony Lenzo and many nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his brother Anthony and sister Antonietta.
