Joseph Stern, Jr., of Hardyston, passed away on June 20, 2025, at United Methodist Communities Bristol Glen, in Newton.
Joe grew up in the Wanaque, Pompton Lakes area and spent most of his life there. During his high school years in Pompton Lakes Joe went into a work program and started working at the Riverdale Rambler Auto Dealership. He started out in the Parts Department and over a period of a few years, he purchased the property and turned it into an RV center called VanCon, that he ran for many years.
Joe moved to Sussex County 25 years ago, spending 20 years in Oakridge, and the last 5 years in Hardyston, in Crystal Springs.
One of Joe’s favorite past times was boating, and he did many enjoyable trips up and down the East Coast, going to Florida and the Carolinas.
Joe will be deeply missed by his brother Albert of Hardyston, his Aunt Effie Stern of Wayne, and many nieces, nephews, and friends.
