Joseph T. Maleson, in loving memory, October 17, 1949–November 28, 1980:

Joe was born in Baltimore, MD. He grew up in Newton, MA, where he was deeply involved in the Jewish community. Joe graduated from Williams College in 1971 with a degree in Art. In 1980 he received his doctorate in Computer Science from the University of Rochester, N.Y. Joe moved to Palo Alto, CA in 1977 and began work at Xerox PARC.

After a brief courtship, Joe married Jill Harris Maleson on October 21, 1979. After spending an evening at the Maleson home, a friend said, “This isn’t a marriage, it’s a comedy act!” On October 25, 1980, Jill gave birth to their daughter, Sherrie Rose Harris Maleson (now Mayle).

Thanksgiving Day, November 27, 1980, Jill and Joe hosted friends for dinner. Laughter, joy and gratitude filled the day. In the early morning hours of Friday, November 28, 1980, with their daughter sleeping in a cradle at the end of their bed, Jill heard a sound from her husband, turned on the light and saw he had died of a massive heart attack.

Joe was a good man who was loved by all. He contributed to his family, his community and the world. He was a runner, an avid softball player at 2nd base and talented in his chosen field. His dream was to buy a château in France and fill it with artists. 38 years later Jill continues to feel the loss of her beloved. She is grateful to loving friends who have supported her and her daughter.
