- Published in Chicago Suburban Daily Herald on, JOSEPH MARTIN GITTENS
Joseph Martin Gittens passed away on July 9, 2016, at 87 years of age in Naperville IL. Born of Irish immigrants, Martin Joseph and Bridget Carroll Gittens, in Green Bay, Wisconsin, on December 30, 1928. Joe was raised by his six older siblings, primarily his sister Mary, after his parents died when he was still a young child. Having survived polio in his youth, he became an avid tennis player, and continued playing regularly until the end of his seventh decade. Joe found the love of his life, Ruth Janet Eiler, at the Green Bay Press Gazette, where they both worked. They married February 14, 1953, after serving in the Korean War. Together they raised five children. His professional career as traffic manager for St. Regis/Champion Pager where he worked for over 35 years took him from Green Bay to Milwaukee to Ohio to Illinois, and finally finished his career in New York. He and Ruth retired to the land of his dreams, the Gulf coast of Florida. In his final decade, he returned to Illinois to be closer to family. He is survived by his children, daughter Jody Gittens Wright of Sacramento, and four sons, Kevin (Kimberly Pennington) of Naperville, Steven of Chicago, Colin of Los Angeles, and Joseph (Amira Odisho) of Mt. Prospect. He has six grandchildren, Ian (Megan Boring) Wright, Lindsay Wright, Brian (Felicia Deaton) Gittens, Erica Gittens, Angela Gittens (Ben) Bartusiak, and Phillip Gittens. He was also blessed with four great-grandchildren, Joey and Gianna Bartusiak and Emmersyn and Hudson Wright and numerous cousins, nieces, and nephews. Joe will be remembered as a man of great passion and occasional silliness who greatly loved his family and friends. He will be sorely missed and can now be with his beloved wife again. Visitation Tuesday, July 12, 2016 from 12:30 - 2:00 PM at Friedrich-Jones Funeral Home & Cremation Services, 44 S. Mill Street, Naperville, IL with a service to follow at 2:00 PM in the funeral home.
