Joseph "Pepa" Willoughby, 85, of Youngtown, AZ, passed away on April 4, 2007. He was born in Bronx, NY on November 10, 1921. Joe married Mildred Kerstin shortly before joining the Army in 1942. He was employed by ITT, NJ until his retirement in 1988. He was preceded in death by his wife Mildred, his mother Anna Lewis and step-father, Reggie Lewis. He is survived by his only son Robert and daughter-in-law Diana; grandsons, Bobby (Kim) and Keith (Sheri); great granddaughter, Logan Rae, who always seemed to bring a gleam to his eye, and his faithful companion, Penny.
