Joseph was born in Hungary and as a cavalry officer spent time in a Russian prisoner of war camp where he acquired the unique knowledge of MAGIC that earned him the title THE AMAZING Hartley. He became national retail sales manager at Sears and after 30 years of successfully touring Canada, he retired and pursued a career as a MAGICIAN. He spent the last 11 months at the West Park Long Term Care facility.
A Funeral Mass will be held at St. Elizabeth of Hungary Church (453 Sheppard Ave. E.), on Wednesday, April 10, 2019 at 10:30 a.m., followed by a reception in the church hall.
As an expression of sympathy, donations to St. Elizabeth of Hungary Church would be greatly appreciated.
