Joseph “Big Joe” Vitale III OBITUARY
Joseph Big Joe Vitale III, 61, formerly of West Nanticoke, PA, and Honeybrook, PA, passed away, surrounded by family, on Wednesday, March 5, 2025, at Geisinger Wyoming Valley Hospital.
Joe lived a life defined by hard work, generosity, and unwavering love and support of family, nature, and craftsmanship.
Born on July 20, 1963, in Wilkes-Barre, Joe was the son of the late Joseph and Ann Marie (Barberio) Vitale. He was a 1982 graduate of John S. Fine High School in Nanticoke, PA, where he wrestled and played football. Joe spent nearly 20 years working alongside the Amish in PA Dutch Country, sharing his farming techniques and deepening his connection to the land.
Joe was a skilled and hardworking mason, dedicating his life to his craft. From small family projects to masonry work on celebrity homes, his craftsmanship and work ethic were second to none. But as much as Joe loved his trade, his true passion was farming. He found joy in working his land in the Plymouth Flats, growing vegetables, and raising pigs, chickens, and rabbits. He was truly one with the land – hunting, fishing, and simply enjoying the outdoors every chance he got.
Joe never asked for much for himself but gave endlessly to others. He spent his teen years helping raise and watch over his nine younger siblings, serving as the built-in babysitter and keeping everyone in line. He was the first to show up at your door with freshly grown vegetables or meat from his farm, never expecting anything in return. He took care of everyone in his own quiet way, always giving more than he received.
Joe was a brother, an uncle, a mason, a farmer, and a man whose hands shaped both stone and soil. He…
The provincial Crown has withdrawn all charges against Stelco, after two workers suffered severe burns they later died from.
All but one Ministry of Labour charge was also withdrawn against John Kenyon Ltd., the sheet metal contractor and employer of Gabriel Cabral, 32, and Sean MacPherson, 56, who were badly injured on April 25, 2023 at the Stelco Lake Erie Works plant in Nanticoke.
At the Ontario Court of Justice in Cayuga last week, John Kenyon instead pleaded guilty to one count of failing to take every reasonable precaution to protect a worker. It was ordered to pay a $250,000 fine and 25 per cent victim fine surcharge, said the Ministry of Labour.
John Kenyon and Stelco did not respond to CBC Hamilton’s request for comment.
Cabral’s mother, Pam Fraser, said earlier this year, she was shocked to learn the Crown wasn’t pursuing all the charges through a trial.
While excruciating to sit through, a trial would’ve meant Fraser heard evidence and testimony that would’ve helped her understand how 70 per cent of her son’s body sustained severe burns while on the job.
“I want assurance this is not going to happen to another person or family again” Fraser said, speaking to CBC Hamilton on Friday — a few days after the court case concluded.
“I am just so angry. My son died in vain.”
Died weeks later in hospital
Cabral and MacPherson were burned by steam while repairing steel cladding on a quench tower, a structure used for cooling hot coke in the steelmaking process, their families previously told CBC Hamilton.
John Kenyon and Stelco had each initially faced four charges under the Occupational Health and Safety Act including failing to provide information, instruction and supervision to workers.
Among those withdrawn, John Kenyon had been charged with failing to provide equipment, materials and protective devices to protect workers from hot steam, and Stelco with failing to have an emergency stop device on the mogul/quench car.

As the new curator of the Nanticoke Indian Museum near Millsboro, Therese Avedillo is “delighted to have the opportunity to preserve the history of the Nanticokes” and plans to take a holistic approach as she teaches visitors about the rich history of the tribe.
“I plan to apply my archaeological knowledge. I am very pleased to join the Nanticoke museum, and I’m interested in learning about the first people of our first state, working with the elders and serving,” said Avedillo, who lives in Millsboro with her husband, Mike.
She took over as museum curator on Monday, Feb. 24, to the delight of Nanticoke Chief Avery Johnson, who called her “a special individual.”
“She is very interested in our history,” he said. “She has a great personality. She fits in with us very well. We brought her in, and she spent a day with us and we spent the day with her, and it was just great. We never had anybody capable of doing what we need, or even knowing which direction to go.
“That museum — that’s a special place we have, and it needs to come into 2025. This will allow us to reach our goal of bringing in a professional curator, a full-time curator, which we never had in the history of that museum,” Johnson said.
Avedillo, who grew up in South Africa, said she often visited museums while she was growing up.
“That is where my interest in history and culture grew. I took up a background in television production in New York. I went to school at Syracuse University, then I went back to my interest in museum studies at the University of Leicester in England. I earned a master’s degree in museum studies,” she said.
She volunteered in London, including at the Postal Museum and Petrie Museum of Egyptian Archeology,…

Stanley F. Goliembeski OBITUARY
Stanley F. Goliembeski, Sr., 91, of West Nanticoke section of Plymouth Township, passed away early Thursday morning, Jan. 9, 2014, at Birchwood Nursing and Rehabilitation Center, Nanticoke, where he had been a patient since Nov. 15. He had been in declining health for the past two years.
Born and raised in the Honey Pot section of Nanticoke, he was a son of the late Frank and Katherine Pavetski Golumb. He was educated at the former Holy Trinity parochial school.
Mr. Goliembeski was a World War II veteran, having served with Company M, 39th Infantry in Normandy, Northern France, Ardennes, Rhineland, Central Europe. He received the Purple Heart after being wounded on July 24, 1944, in France; he was also awarded the EAME Service Ribbon and the Good Conduct Medal.
He married the former Anna Sobotka in 1946 and shorty after they moved to her homestead in West Nanticoke to make their home.
Stanley retired in the mid-1970’s after 30 years of employment with the Glen Nan Coal Company, Alden, where he was a driller and dynamiter.
Stanley will be fondly remembered as an avid fisherman, especially at Lake Wallenpaupack. He liked to bake and cook for friends and people in the neighborhood, was an excellent handyman and always would lend a hand to anyone in need. He was a member of St. Faustina Kowalska Parish, Nanticoke, and a life-long member of Holy Trinity Church prior to the consolidation; American Legion Post #350, Nanticoke, and in earlier years had served as Secretary/Treasurer of United Mine Workers Local union.
He was preceded in death by an infant daughter, Marie, and daughter-in-law, Sally A. Goliembeski. The last member of his immediate family, he was preceded in death by brothers, Thomas Golumb, Joseph Golembeski, Walter (Edward) Golumb and…
The former president of the Nanticoke varsity football booster club was charged Tuesday with stealing over $26,000 from the organization during his tenure, according to charges filed in court.
Sterling Kepp, 47, of 336 E. Broad St., Nanticoke, is facing a single felony count of theft alleging he drained all but about $222 from the account of the booster club, which is formally known as the Nanticoke 12th Man Football Club.
According to the complaint, Wendy Graves reported having difficulty getting information about the club’s PNC Bank account when she was appointed club treasurer in August 2023.
Despite repeated inquiries about the banking information, Kepp failed to provide her the information she needed to view the online account, police said.
In October 2023, Graves went to the bank to make a deposit and inquired about the account balance, learning that only about $222 remained, according to the complaint.
After discovering a substantial amount of missing money, Graves contacted Kepp to ask if he had any outstanding checks waiting to be deposited.
Kepp replied that he knew he owed money to the club and promised to “make it right,” according to the charges.
Graves then contacted Superintendent Ronald Grevera, and they reported the missing money to police.
During a review of the books, investigators discovered that there were “undocumented currency disbursements” totaling $26,543 from the account, according to the complaint.
Police say Kepp had handled all financial responsibilities for the club during the period when the money went missing.
As a result, he was charged with the single felony count of theft.
Magisterial District Judge Alexandra Kokura Kravitz arraigned Kepp on the charges Tuesday morning and released him on $50,000 unsecured bail.
A preliminary hearing was scheduled for March 12.
