Joseph Pete Latz, age 78, of Clarksburg passed away on August 7, 2020 at the Good Samaritan Society in Barbour County following an extended illness.
He was born in Owens, WV on September 30, 1941, a son of the late Joseph Pete Latz, and Helen (Toth) Popovich and step-father George Popovich who raised him following the death of his father at age 3.
He is survived by his wife of 50 years, Anna Jean Cuppari Latz, whom he married on April 3, 1970.
In addition to his wife, he is survived by one daughter, Kellie Jo Conley and her husband Jared of Raleigh, NC; three grandchildren, Katlyn, Sean and Lachlan Conley; three sisters, Barbara Seti of Stonewood, Helen Jean Vernon of Laurel Park, and Margaret “Marge” Paugh of Stonewood; several nieces and nephews; and his beloved dog Bella Mia.
