JOSEPH M. O'NEILL
AGE 88 YEARS

Joseph M. O'Neill of Wakefield, formerly of Malden, passed away December 28, 2022. Beloved husband of Joanne (Hamaty) O'Neill. Loving father of Michael, Julie A., Joseph S., and Robert J. Grandfather of one grandson. Brother of Catherine and late husband, James of Lynnfield. Also survived by many nieces and nephews and great-nieces and nephews. He was the son of the late Michael and Catherine (O'Dea) O'Neill.

Joe had been a longtime Malden resident before making his home in Wakefield nearly 13 years ago. While in Malden he was a member of St. Joseph's Church and was a eucharistic minister and lector. He was also part of the parish Men's Club and for more than 30 years ran the weekly BINGO night. Joe worked as an accountant from 1954 until his retirement in 1994; spending his entire career with Bank of New England, though it experienced many name changes during his tenure. He was an avid reader and was a weather buff – tracking, charting, and following the local activity. In his younger years he enjoyed traveling and most especially loved his trip to Ireland to see where his parents were raised.

Funeral Mass: St. Florence Church, 47 Butler Ave., Wakefield.
Arrangements: McDonald Funeral Home, 19 Yale Ave., Wakefield.
Interment: Forest Glade Cemetery, Wakefield.
