Obituary for
Joseph Christopher Hettich
Joseph Christopher Hettich, 51, of Coconut Creek, FL passed away unexpectedly on April 28, 2017 leaving family and friends heartbroken. He was born and raised in Philadelphia, PA before taking a road trip with his best friend and brother, Frank, that landed them in South Florida. Joe settled in Margate, FL where he began a family of his own.
Blessed with a generous heart and hardworking hands, Joe gave all he had to his family and friends. His sarcastic sense of humor kept the jokes rolling and his happy-go-lucky attitude let him roll with life's curve balls. In his spare time Joe enjoyed sketching and playing softball. A perfect day was boating and fishing with a cold beer in hand and Frank by his side.
Survived by his children, Jessica Hettich and Joe Hettich; siblings, Elizabeth, Maryann, Joanne, and Donna; numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, 1 niece and 8 nephews; sister in law Ginger Hettich and his former wife, Linda Vataha. Joe was preceded in death by his brother, Frank, and his parents, Frank and Joan Hettich. S
