He passed away at the age of 60 years . Joe was born on November 29, 1965, in Victoria, BC and lived life to the fullest with his humour and deep love for his kids, his family and his passion for sports, especially the “Habs”, hockey team. Whether sharing a meal, telling a story, dancing or lending a helping hand, Joe made every moment count.
Predeceased by his father, João Tiago Carreiro Moniz in October 2005, Joe is survived by his dear Mother, Maria Joana Tavares Moniz, his beloved son Joshua Moniz (Alana), his beloved daughter Chelsea Moniz (Jesse), their mother Cindy, brother John Moniz (Jen, Amber, Rio), sister Luiza Franco (Jimmy, Erin, Fiamma, Aria, Tyler) not to forget his furry grandkids Blu and Penny! Joe attended Oak Bay High School and gained so many friendships throughout the years, everyone loved Joe and Joe loved everyone.
Joe worked for many years at Chew Excavating as well as years doing drywall. You could often find Joe full of dirt or drywall dust covering his body!! Joe was a hard worker in any job he had and would give the shirt off his back to help anyone in life. Joe’s charismatic charm and personality attracted so many friends and family to enjoy the moment and always was able to put anyone in a happy joyful mood. His goofy dance moves attracted so many to the dance floor to join in no matter where he was.
Family and Friends are invited to attend the funeral for José Moniz on Friday, January 23, 2026 at Our Lady of Fatima Parish, 4635 Elk Lake Drive at 9:30am Viewing (Immediate family only), 9:45am Viewing (for everyone), 10:00am Rosary, 10:30am Funeral Service followed by a Mausoleum Service at Royal Oak Burial Park, 4673 Falaise Drive, Victoria BC, where we will honour Joe’s beautiful spirit.
