Joe was born in Florida, and moved to California, Mo., with his family at an early age. He was a graduate of California High School in the Class of 1964. Joseph attended college briefly before being drafted in to the United States Army in 1966 where he faithfully served his country during the Vietnam War. Joe was honorably discharged and returned home to California, Mo. He worked in manufacturing for several years. He later returned to college to finish his degree in Business Management from the University of Central Missouri in Warrensburg. Joe worked for twenty years as a manufacturing supervisor for Sunstrand until transferring to Copeland in Lebanon, where he continued his career as supervisor until his passing. Joe had accepted Christ as his Savior at an early age. He was an avid outdoorsman, and spent his free time hunting and fishing. Joe was a die-hard Kansas City Chiefs' fan and on Friday nights you could find him in his favorite seat cheering on the Camdenton Lakers. He enjoyed visiting with his family and friends but cherished the time spent with his grandchildren the most. Joe is survived by: his wife, Cathy, of the home; his sons, Brandon Dziadosz and wife Jennifer, of Camdenton, Mo., Joseph E. Dziadosz III, of Springfield, Mo.; his daughters, Leah Williamson of Springfield, Mo., and Natasha Dziadosz, of Camdenton, Mo.; six grandchildren, Alivia, Codi, Cheyenne Juhl and husband Michael, Ryan, Steven, and Joshua; his siblings, Carol Eddy and husband James, of Germantown, Tenn., Michael Dziadosz, of Jamestown, Mo., and David Dziadosz and wife Sharon, of Jefferson City, Mo.; a number of nieces, nephews, as well as a host of other relatives and many dear friends. He was preceded in death by his parents; and a grandson, Caleb Joseph Paul Evans. Joe was a loving husband, father, grandfather, brother, and uncle, and was a caring neighbor and friend. We celebrate his life and accomplishments and will treasure the many wonderful memories he has created for his family and many dear friends.
