Joseph Foster, 56, of Weirton, passed away Sunday, November 8th, 2026 peacefully in his home. Joseph was born August 5th, 1970 in Steubenville, son of the late Nick J. Foster, Jr. and Josephine (Masterlasco) Foster.
Joey was a wonderful son, brother, uncle and friend. He enjoyed his time watching his favorite baseball team, the Pirates, listening to music, fishing, enjoying the sunshine and spending time with his beloved family. He had the most contagious laugh, and his big personality was adored by all who surrounded him. He brought a light to the room that no one could ignore. He treasured his nieces, Sam and Liz, and great nieces Loretta and Lilah. He loved to laugh and chat with his goddaughter, Sam, and a freshly brewed coffee from his niece, Liz. He was quick with a joke, especially with his sister, Gina, and knew how to make everyone laugh even on his worst days. He will be deeply missed by anyone who had the opportunity to be in his presence.
Joseph will be lovingly missed by his mother, Josephine (Masterlasco) Foster; brother, Nick Foster (Linda Kuntupis); sister, Gina "Gige" Montgomery (Jeffrey); nieces, Samantha Stull (Trey), Elizabeth Montgomery; and great nieces, Loretta Stull and Lilah Stull; and many other loving family members.
Joseph is preceded in death by his father, Nick J. Foster, Jr., who he loved and admired dearly.
Visitation will take place Friday, November 13, from 3:00 p.m. until the funeral service at 6:00 p.m., at Steel & Wolfe Funeral Home, 380 Penco Road, Weirton, with Bishop Craig Greathouse presiding.
