With his family by his side, he took his last breath and went to join his wife Viviann".e (née Plamondon).

      Joseph leaves behind his three children Gisèle (Roméo Rey), Daniel (Sandra) and Guy (Lilliane); his nine grandchildren Marc (Kathleen) Rey, Joanne Rey (Raymond Lepine), Sophie Rey (Reilly Bessette), Crystal (Tim) Moore, Kiana Sorin, Julien Sorin, Chantal (Rob) Young, Christine Sorin and André Sorin as well as 11 great grandchildren Brayden (Caitlin) Rey, Mercedes Rey, Melah Rey, Brynlee Rey, Caleb Lepine, Cerena Moore, Emmitt Moore, Nova Sorin and Aurora Sorin, Alexisse Young, and Margot Young. Dad also leaves his second wife Norma (Coffey) and her three children Jerry, Pat and Brenda along with his brother Paul M. Af, and his in-laws Irène Plamondon, Diana Plamondon and many nieces, nephews and friends.

      Joseph is also predeceased by his parents Jean and Marie-Thérèse (née Baudry) Sorin, his in-laws Achille and Olivine (née Dupuis) Plamondon. He will also be joining his brothers and their wives, Émile (Rose), Jules (Laurette), Yves (Marguerite), his sisters and husbands, Florence (Léopold) Chartier, Lucille F.d.l.C., and Cécile (August) Flegel; his in-laws Émilien (Jeanne) Plamondon, Simone (Gérard) Joyal, Claire (Bert) Calder, Lucette (Edward) Loiselle, Yvette (Edmond) Joyal, Léo Plamondon, Louis Plamondon S.J., Sylvio Plamondon, Jeanne (Glen) Jamieson, Blanche (Émilien) Lavoie, and Dolorès (Matt) Sandul.

      Joseph was born in Ste. Agathe, Manitoba on October 31, 1937. He was the youngest of eight children. He married his first love Vivianne on November 4th, 1961. They lived and they farmed in Aubigny, Manitoba, where their 3 children were born. Dad wasn’t really a farmer, so he decided to take a barbering course and moved us to Elie Manitoba. In Elie, he ran a barber shop and pool room, then he took his family to St. Claude in August 1972. Here Dad did several different jobs. In May 1981 Dad had a terrible motor vehicle accident which ended his work career. After that he moved several times, but spent his last 14 months in St. Claude close to his children. We cherished these last 14 months with Dad. We could stop and see him daily, play crib and watch the NHL games with him. Dad was always a faithful fan of the Montréal Canadiens. If they won for sure the next day he was wearing his Montréal Hat, Jacket and watch. We always knew Montréal won by his attire.

      Dad was a proud man who always took care of his family. Dad was always the joke teller and the prankster. He enjoyed playing crib, canasta and many more card games. Uncle Joe to his nephews and nieces always was a special man who we are sure they will all remember fondly.

      Dad, aka Pépère Joe for the grandkids, we will miss you, your quick wit, smiles and your love. Love you and give Mom, “Mémère Joe” a big hug from us down here.

      Special thanks to the staff of the St. Claude TCU, homecare workers and volunteers who cared for our Dad.

      Joseph a gagné ses ailes le 1er juillet 2025 au Foyer de soins de transition Saint-Claude, à Saint-Claude, au Manitoba. Accompagné de sa famille, il a rendu son dernier souffle et est allé rejoindre son épouse Vivianne (née Plamondon).

      Joseph laisse dans le deuil ses trois enfants, Gisèle (Roméo Rey), Daniel (Sandra) et Guy (Lilliane), ses neuf petits-enfants, Marc (Kathleen) Rey, Joanne Rey (Raymond Lépine), Sophie Rey (Reilly Bessette), Crystal (Tim) Moore, Kiana Sorin, Julien Sorin, Chantal (Rob) Young, Christine Sorin et André Sorin, ainsi que ses onze arrière-petits-enfants, Brayden (Caitlin) Rey, Mercedes Rey, Melah Rey, Brynlee Rey, Caleb Lépine, Cerena Moore, Emmitt Moore, Nova Sorin et Aurora Sorin, Alexisse Young et Margot Young. Papa laisse également dans le deuil sa deuxième épouse Norma (Coffey) et ses trois enfants Jerry, Pat et Brenda ainsi que son frère Paul M. Af, et ses beaux-parents Irène Plamondon, Diana Plamondon et plusieurs nièces, neveux et amis.

      Joseph est également précédé par ses parents Jean et Marie-Thérèse (née Baudry) Sorin, ses beaux-parents Achille et Olivine (née Dupuis) Plamondon. Il rejoindra également ses frères et épouses, Émile (Rose), Jules (Laurette), Yves (Marguerite), ses sœurs et époux, Florence (Léopold) Chartier, Lucille F.d.l.C. et Cécile (August) Flegel; ses beaux-parents Émilien (Jeanne) Plamondon, Simone (Gérard) Joyal, Claire (Bert) Calder, Lucette (Edward) Loiselle, Yvette (Edmond) Joyal, Léo Plamondon, Louis Plamondon S.J., Sylvio Plamondon, Jeanne (Glen) Jamieson, Blanche (Émilien) Lavoie et Dolorès (Matt) Sandul.

      Joseph est né à Ste. Agathe, Manitoba, le 31 octobre 1937. Il était le plus jeune de huit enfants. Il a épousé son premier amour, Vivianne, le 4 novembre 1961. Ils ont vécu et exploité une ferme à Aubigny, Manitoba, où leurs trois enfants sont nés. Papa n'était pas vraiment agriculteur, alors il a décidé de suivre une formation de barbier et nous a installés à Élie, Manitoba. À Élie, il a tenu un salon de coiffure et une salle de billard, ensuite il a emmené sa famille à Saint-Claude en août 1972. Là, papa a exercé plusieurs métiers. En mai 1981, papa a eu un terrible accident de voiture qui a mis fin à sa carrière professionnelle. Après cela, il a déménagé plusieurs fois, mais a passé ses 14 derniers mois à Saint-Claude, près de ses enfants. Nous avons chéri ces 14 derniers mois avec papa. Nous pouvions le voir tous les jours, jouer au crib et regarder les matchs de la LNH avec lui. Papa a toujours été un supporteur des Canadiens de Montréal. S'ils gagnaient, c'était sûr, le lendemain, il portait sa casquette, son manteau et sa montre de Montréal. Nous savions toujours que Montréal avait gagné.

      Papa était un homme fier qui prenait toujours soin de sa famille. Papa était toujours un conteur de blagues et un farceur. Il aimait jouer au crib, au canasta et à bien d'autres jeux de cartes. Oncle Joe était toujours un homme spécial pour ses neveux et nièces, dont nous sommes sûrs qu'ils se souviendront tous avec tendresse.

      Papa, « Pépère Joe » pour les petits-enfants, tu nous manqueras, ta vivacité d'esprit, tes sourires et ton amour. On t'aime et donne un câlin à maman, « Mémère Joe », pour nous.

      Un merci spécial au personnel du TCU de St. Claude, aux aides à domicile et aux bénévoles qui ont pris soin de notre père.
