Joseph Dmytryszyn

Joseph Dmytryszyn, a longtime resident of Philadelphia, PA, who later moved to Boca Raton, FL, passed away on November 16, 2023.  He was 84 years old.

Born in Chortkiv, Ukraine, Joseph was the son of the late Antoni and Anna (Stratij) Dmytryszyn.  Joseph, along with his mother and siblings, survived the horrors and starvation of World War II including internment in concentration and displaced person camps.  He emigrated to the United States after the war and the family settled in the Fairmont section of the city.  Joseph worked for many years in the arcade game industry.

Married for 61 years, he was the beloved husband of Anna and adored father of Natalie White and her husband Jay and Lana Dmytryszyn Adam and her husband Stephan.  He is also survived by his grandchildren:  Laryssa and Joseph White and Alexia Adam; and his siblings:  Anastasia Palumbo and Irene Dawson.  He is predeceased by his brother, Eugene Dmytryszyn.

Joseph was a rare gem of a human being. He worked tirelessly and unselfishly to provide for his family.  He was a friend to all and treated everyone like family.  He was quick to offer help or good cheer to anyone in need, always with a smile.  His grandchildren deeply revered him, and Joseph cherished them with depthless gentle fondness.  He loved telling funny stories and was known for his great sense of humor.  He will be sorely missed.  Truly, a great man.

Relatives and friends are invited to his viewing on Saturday, December 2, 2023, at 10:00 AM at St. Michael the Archangel Ukrainian Catholic Church.  Requiem Liturgy will be celebrated at 10:30 AM.  Burial will follow at Lawnview Cemetery, Rockledge, PA.
