Joseph Bradley Costello
Joseph Bradley Costello, 71, of St. Charles, Mo passed away peacefully on November 19th 2025 of Alzheimer’s Disease.
Joe was born in St. Louis, youngest of 3 boys and grew up playing competitive soccer in his youth, at CBC Highschool and at Northwestern University in IL. He continued his love of sports playing men’s slow pitch softball, men’s indoor soccer and taking daily runs which he continued until recently. Joe met his wife, Pam Costello, through mutual friends and after a short time married. Joe and Pam had a loving marriage, laughing, having fun together, raising their family and working around their beloved family home and yard. He was a great husband, father and provider. Joe worked as a delivery driver for most of his life and after an early retirement, he worked in landscape, concrete and maintenance. He was a “Jack of all trades” and never saw a project or problem that he could not fix. He enjoyed teaching others these skills as well. Joe prided himself on his work ethic. Joe was a Christian and gave his life to Jesus- He is in Heaven now with his Lord and Savior.
Joe is survived by his wife of 48 years, Pamela Costello. His son, Bryan Costello, daughter in law, Baby Costello and their children, Collin Costello, Jacob Garrison and Lexi Costello. His daughter, Julie Hewlett, son in law, Mike Hewlett and their children Luke Hewlett, Nina Hewlett and Jack Hewlett. Joe was a special person who loved his family very much and they loved him. Words can not express how much he will be missed. Enjoy Paradise, See you soon!

Joe and Pam have been our neighbors for the past 12 years. They’ve always been a glowing presence, especially as we began and grew our little family. Joe always greeted us with a light hearted smile and a big wave. We will miss deeply Joe’s kindness and warmth, his wonderful laugh, and the little chats when seeing him out and about in his walks. Be at peace.
Even though our time with Joe was brief, his impact on our lives was profound. His smile had a way of lighting up the room, and he brought so much joy and laughter to those around him. We want you to know that your Forget Me Not family is holding you close in our thoughts and prayers. May you find the strength and comfort you need during this incredibly difficult time.
