Joseph P. Fontes Obituary
It is always difficult saying goodbye to someone we love and cherish. Family and friends must say goodbye to their beloved Joseph P. Fontes of Manchester, New Hampshire, who passed away at the age of 78, on March 4, 2025. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Joseph P. Fontes to show support.
As we bid Joseph farewell, let us not mourn the absence of his physical form, but rather celebrate the essence of his spirit that lingers in the spaces between moments. For Joseph is not truly gone, but merely transformed, his energy intertwined with the fabric of the universe itself, forever dancing among the stars.
He was loved and cherished by many people including: his parents, Joseph H. Fontes and Yolanda A. Fontes (Sabella); his wife Wanda Tomlinson; his children, Joshua Fontes (Denna) and Jessica Thorp (Larry) of Portsmouth; his grandchildren, Lilliana and Nayeli Fontes; and his sister Linda Burns (John).
He was a Big Brother in the BBBS program, volunteered at United Way serving on the Allocation Committee, and prior to the pandemic, spent several years serving at the 1269 Café and DYKH Ministries working with the undeserved community.
