December 25, 1938 — June 29, 2019

Joseph Atlee Freshley, 80, of Alliance journeyed home to be with the Lord Saturday June 29, 2019 at home, surrounded by his family. Joe was born 12/25/1938 in Homeworth, Ohio to the late Atlee and Violet (Wyss) Freshley.

Joe touched many lives whether it was driving school bus, delivering Meals on Wheels or volunteering at Alliance Community Hospital. He retired from American Steel Foundaries after 30 years and worked various jobs during his retirement. Joe supported several charities, was a member at Middle Sandy Presbyterian Church and attended First United Presbyterian Church of Alliance. He was a member of the Push Rods, enjoyed classic cars, and was an avid Indians and Buckeyes fan.

He loved God and his family completely. He served his church with pride and was loved by many. No matter what role he was playing, Dad, Grandpa, “Popie”, Great-Grandpa, brother, uncle, or friend he gave his all.
