Joseph Nicholas Candelora Obituary

We are sad to announce that, on October 11, 2025 we had to say goodbye to Joseph Nicholas Candelora in Clinton, Mississippi. You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family.

In the soft embrace of remembrance, we recall the profound impact Joseph had on those he encountered along his journey. Though Joseph may have slipped beyond the veil of mortality, his essence lingers like a faint fragrance in the air, a lingering reminder of the beauty and complexity of the human experience.

He is survived by: his wife Kay Candelora of Madison, MS; his children, Allison Candelora of Washington, DC and Nicholas Candelora (Schuyler Candelora) of Charlottesville, VA; his grandchild Rubylou of Charlottesville, VA.; and his brother Nicholas Candelora of Ohio. He is also survived by nieces, nephews, and cousins.

In lieu of flowers, please consider donating in his memory to the organizations listed above or the Gateway Rescue Mission in Jackson, MS.
