Joseph “Bub” Anthony Ellis, Jr., 74, of Bridgeport, WV passed away at United Hospital Center on Friday, April 19, 2024.

He was born in Clarksburg, WV on January 24, 1950, and was the son of the late Joseph Anthony and Frances (Benincosa) Ellis.

Joseph was a 1967 graduate of Notre Dame High School and was on the varsity football team. He was a 1968 graduate of Greenbrier Military Academy and attended Fairmont State College. He loved meeting people as a card dealer in Las Vegas, a restaurant manager at Green Hills Country Club, and bartending at the Ellis Restaurant and Supper Club. Joseph enjoyed hunting, fishing, golfing, and watching college and NFL football games.

Joseph is survived by one sister and brother-in-law, JoAnn (Ellis) and Pete Iquinto; one brother and sister-in-law, James and Patricia (Quinn) Ellis; nieces Jacqueline (Iquinto) Reed and her husband James Reed, III and Cynthia Iquinto; nephews Patrick, Joseph, and Matthew Ellis; and great-nieces Francesca and Amelia Reed. Joe will be missed by so many special cousins, especially Joan (Secreta) LeJeune and Bernadette (Rodriguez) Ayoob who were very devoted to him. He also had numerous lifelong friends, including his high school classmates, who were just like family to him.

Joseph enjoyed his many friends at Bridgeport Manor and often left his door open for them to come and go as they pleased. A special thank you to Daniella and Julia who took such good care of him. We would also like to thank Dr. Davis and staff, and the UHC Intensive Care Unit.

Per his request, Joseph will be cremated.
