Joseph Delaney

Age 62, of St. Paul died 4/18/16 after a yearlong battle with cancer. Preceded in death by Father Frank Delaney Jr. Survived by Mother Susanne Delaney, brothers Jim (Anne), Chip (Jane) and Mark Delaney, sisters Anne Kreiser, Mary Delaney and Shelagh (Joe) Burke, many nieces and nephews and his faithful dog Buddy. Born November 6, 1953, Joe attended Cretin High School '72 and the University of Minnesota. If you ever had the good fortune to meet Joe Delaney, chances are you'd never forget him. Joe was truly one-of-a-kind! His quick wit, quirky sense of humor and love of a good time endeared him to many. Hosting his annual Wally World golf tournament brought Joe great joy because it gathered all of his favorite people together. Joe's greatest gift was his ability to establish and maintain incredibly strong friendships, many that spanned over 50 years. Since his diagnosis, the outpouring of support and love from neighbors and friends has been truly amazing. Joe's family is humbled by and forever grateful for the generosity we have witnessed. In lieu of flowers, memorials preferred to Our Lady of Peace Hospice. Visitation 9-10 am with 10 am Memorial Mass on Saturday, April 23 at Assumption Church in downtown St. Paul.
