Joseph was born December 17, 1924 in Youngstown, a son of the late Joseph Michael Fabry and Wilma Gaj Fabry. Joseph was a life-long member of St. Cyril and Methodius Church, where he attended school and also served as an altar boy.

Joseph was proud of his military service to our country, having served in the United States Navy from 1943 until 1946 as a Yeoman 2nd Class. His troop ship, the USS Mifflin landed marines in the first wave of the Battle of Iwo Jima and participated in the invasion of Okinawa. He belonged to the First Catholic Slovak Ladies Association Branch 30, Catholic War Veterans Post 1222, and the American Legion Post 0888. He leaves to cherish his memory, his sisters, Mary Rita Martinko of Boardman, Theresa (John) Kern of Struthers, a brother, Bernard T. Fabry of Poland, as well as several nieces and nephews. Interment will take place at Calvary Cemetery, where full military honors will be rendered.
