Joseph Lewkovich, Jr

Joseph Lewkovich, a devoted husband to Linda, a proud father to Kim, Peter, Eric, Mary, Christopher, and Amy, and a cherished grandfather to Hailey and Alex, passed away peacefully at his home in Ridge on April 8, 2025.

A proud veteran of the US Army, Joe’s life was marked by diverse occupations. He honed his skills as a salesman, ventured into entrepreneurship by owning his own trucking company, Jolin, and managed a hobby store called Latest Hobbies alongside his sons. In his later years, Joe retired from Laidlaw Bus Company in Shoreham, where he served as the lead bus driver trainer and safety officer.

Beyond his professional achievements, Joe was an avid golfer, a passionate New York Yankee baseball fan, and an enthusiastic racer of radio-controlled cars. He had a deep love for all animals and kept a variety of tropical and saltwater fish in his home aquarium. Joe also found solace in gardening and tending to his beautiful roses in the yard.

In memory of Joe, donations can be made to St. Marks Church in Shoreham in lieu of flowers.
