January 31, 2018 Joe died at home in Chandler surrounded by his family after a hard fought battle with cancer on January 28th. Joe was born in Phoenix in 1954. He attended grade school and high school in Phoenix. Joe worked in many areas of construction. He loved working with wood, especially the redwoods of Northern California. He was an accomplished plumber and home remodeler. His love and devotion to his craft are reflected in many properties in California and Arizona. He spent much of his work life in California. Joe was a very generous person. Without hesitation and refusing compensation he completed car repairs, painting and repairing homes, building gardens and anything else that his family or friends needed. He brought so much love into any room he entered; his smile and jokes were infectious and he would do anything to help someone in need. Joe had a great sense of humor and always made everyone laugh. He loved classic rock music especially the Allman Brothers, Eric Clapton, and Santana. He loved taking a boat out on the lake. He loved watching Star Wars, Guardians of the Galaxy and other fantasy fiction movies. He was great with children. We are all better men and women for knowing him. He was preceded in death by his parents, Thomas and Catherine Ganey and his infant son, Shawn Thomas. He is survived by his daughter, Shawna Ganey and his granddaughter Kaydence, his sisters Kathleen Greene, Patricia Haren and her husband Kevin, and Mary Gatfield, brothers Michael Ganey, Timothy Ganey and his wife Cynthia, his nieces and nephews, Sara Orrick, Cassandra Buntrock, Thomas Haren, Tiffany Burningham, Taylor Ganey, Zachary Ganey, and Erica Meltzer, his great nieces and nephews Celeste and Nathan Orrick, Emily Buntrock, Anthony Haren and as he called her “the love of his life” Kathleen Jones with whom he had a long term loving relationship and built a wonderful life. A celebration of Joe’s life will be held in the near future. Family and friends will be contacted with the details.
