Joseph "Joe" Pizzurro

Warren - Joseph “Joe” Pizzurro, 76, of Warren, passed away peacefully on Saturday, November 15, 2025, at UPMC Pittsburgh Shadyside, surrounded by his loving family.

Born on July 10, 1949, in Sicily, Italy, Joe was the son of Giuseppe and Francesca (Randazo) Pizzurro.

In July of 1966, Joe and his family immigrated to the United States, settling in Queens, New York. Joe trained horses at Penn National before moving to Ohio, where his brothers proudly established Brother’s Pizza, a community staple that continues to carry their legacy.

Joe had many passions throughout his life, including cars, horse racing, watching football, and cooking. Though he carried a tough exterior, he was a man of great kindness and generosity. He loved his family and friends deeply, often putting their needs before his own. His devotion and love will be forever remembered by all who knew him.

Joe will be deeply missed by his devoted life partner, Ann, and their children JoAnn, Francesca, John, Devon, and Rosie, together with their significant others. He adored his cherished granddaughters, who brought him endless joy. In addition, he is survived by his children Danielle, Joe, and Frank. Joe’s memory will also be honored by his siblings Angelo (with his wife DeAnna), Salvator, Peter, and his sister Anna Maria Randazo of Sicily, along with many beloved nieces, nephews and friends.

He was preceded in death by his parents and his brothers Francesco “Frank,” Antonio “Nino,” and Giovanni Pizzurro.

Joe’s family honored him with a private funeral mass at St. Teresa of Calcutta Parish and entombment was in All Souls Cemetery.
