Joseph John Mayer

December 7, 1955 - October 7, 2018

Joseph John Mayer, 62, of Galloway, passed away suddenly on October 7, 2018. He was in the arms of his beloved wife, Lori, and in the place that he loved most, Lake George, NY. Born in Camden on December 7, 1955 to Joseph and Virginia (Vahey) Mayer, Joe grew up in Cherry Hill with his three sisters and graduated from Cherry Hill East High School. In 1997, he founded Bayview Bearing & Supply, LLC with his wife Lori, and as owner and manager, he excelled for 21 years through his love for his work and love for his clients. When he was not hard at work, Joe always made sure to enjoy the simple pleasures of life: a solid dish of clams casino, his Super Bowl Champion Eagles, boating, good conversations, dancing, swimming, reading science fiction and spending time with his family. Joe was preceded in death by his father, Joseph, stepfather, Michael Vahey, and his sister, Marian Parrish. Joe is survived by his wife of 32 years, Lori Ann Mayer; his children, Joseph Mayer (Nina), Ryan Mayer (Jennifer), Daniel Mayer and Amanda Mayer; his granddaughters, Nina, Kailey and Violet; his mother, Virginia Vahey; and his sister, Janet Kessler. He is further survived by his loving extended family and dear friends. Our beloved husband, father, Pop-Pop, son and brother, Captain Joe will forever remain in our memory and our hearts. Fly, Joseph, Fly. Visitation will be held on Saturday, October 13th from 10:00 am to 12:00 pm with a service at 12:00 pm at the Wimberg Funeral Home, 211 E.
