Joseph Tierney, III entered into eternal rest, to the arms of his Savior Jesus
Christ unexpectedly on August 20, 2020. The son of Ann Cassidy Tierney and the
late Joseph Tierney, he was 61 years old. Joe's colorful, intelligent
personality took him on amazing adventures where his engaging smile was felt by
his friends, family and anyone he met. His thinking was deep and informed, and
at his core he was a kind, spiritual and devoted Catholic who cherished his
family and his faith in God. He was proud to been able to attend two Papal
visits John Paul and Francis. "Joey" was an outdoor sportsman who enjoyed
hunting and fishing with his family and friends. Joe loved and supported his
spiritual community at Mount Saint Mary College and frequented the Greater
Newburgh Symphony Orchestra. He enjoyed the freedom of his motorcycle and the
comradery of his fellow members "Forever Free MC," the AOH, Black Rock Fish &
Game Club, and the Knights of Columbus. Joe was very proud of this Irish
heritage and a true American with eclectic talents, skills and interests. Joe
was a retired master carpenter, a proud graduate of Mt. St. Mary College and a
paralegal. The son of Ann (Cassidy) Tierney and the late Joseph Tierney, Joe was
born December 15, 1958 in Newburgh. Joe leaves behind his beloved mother Ann,
son Joseph, IV, daughter Shannon, siblings Mark, Lynn, Michael, Alan,
brother-in-law Steve Hastings and sister-in-law Kelly. Joe was a great uncle and
cherished his many nieces and nephews. A Newburgh native like his parents, Joe
recently settled in peaceful quiet country home in the Catskill. Visitation will
