Joseph Charles “Bean” Spina, Sr.

Joseph Charles “Bean” Spina, Sr. of Washington died on Thursday-March 10, 2022 at the Donnell House.

Bean was born in Charleroi on May 24, 1955 to the late Joseph S. Spina and Betty Ann McKeta Spina Draganac of Belle Vernon.

He attended Charleroi High School and after graduation, spent over 40 years in the construction industry operating heavy equipment for various companies.

On May 26, 1990, he married Rebecca Kabay Spina who survives.

Bean was an avid sports fan, professional and local, but nothing kept him away from a Prexie game that his children were participating in and there were a lot.  When the kids were younger he coached whenever he could and as they got older he was more of a spectator, but their biggest fan.

Surviving are his children, Joseph Spina, Jr. (Autumn) of Ellsworth, Jami Spina (Jerome Williams) of Canonsburg, Jonathan Spina of Pittsburgh and Rachel Spina at home; six grandchildren and three great grandchildren; siblings, Vicki Dalfonso (Anthony) of Belle Vernon, Eugene Spina (Traci) of Reynoldsburg, OH and Regina Sicchitano (Ron) of Bentleyville and a host of nieces and nephews.
