Joseph T. Dorlack

Passed away peacefully surrounded by family on Sunday, March 29, 2026 at the age of 91. Reunited with his beloved wife of 66 years, Nancy (nee Klug). Loving father of Joseph J. (Susan A.) Dorlack, Susan M. Dorlack, the late Kathleen Dorlack, and Michael (Rae Ann) Dorlack. Cherished grandpa of Jessica, Scott, Matthew, Michael, Erica, Mark, Alyssa, Danielle, Allison and David. Great-grandpa of Christian, Abigail, Selena, Aubrey, Lincoln, Simon, Jack and Cameron. Further survived by many loved ones and friends.

Joe attended Boys Tech and became an award winning home designer. His beautiful homes can be found throughout the area as he drew custom homes that were in the Parade of Homes. Joe loved to golf and his favorite day was Fathers Day when he went with his sons and grandsons. Even when he couldn't do the whole 18, Joe cheered on from his golf cart. Joe loved to talk to people and had a unique sense of humor.

Even after moving into assisted living at Tudor Oaks, Joe organized after dinner card games and participated in all their activities- he probably knew everyone at Tudor Oaks!

Special thanks to all of the aides and Care Team at Tudor Oaks who worked with Joe for their kind and compassionate care.
