Joseph C. Blasczak, son of Sarah and Joseph Blasczak of Wierton, West Virginia, died suddenly at his home on August 12. He was born March 12, 1944 and is survived by his sister Bernadine Herron, who resides in New Hampshire. Joe leaves behind his loving partner Don Steward, best friend Matthew, and many other close and dear friends and colleagues here in the Bay Area as well as throughout the United States. He will be missed dearly by everyone who was touched by his wonderful love and friendship.
Joe made major contributions to causes to help the communities wherever he lived. He had been involved as a volunteer with Project Open Hand, counseled clients at the Health Insurance Counseling and Advocacy Program, and was on the board of directors for the San Francisco Opera Academy.

Still in shock and really missing the love of my life.
