OBITUARY

Joe Briskey , 78

Joseph Allum Briskey , Marine veteran , carpenter , a 50-year resident of Laguna Beach , a stalwart regular at Main Beach and Crescent Bay , former pitcher for the Utah State Aggies baseball team , known to hundreds of friends all over Laguna Beach as Joe or Jose , died Sept . 16 , 2022 . He was 78 years old .
Joe passed away at Hoag Hospital in Newport Beach after a lengthy illness and complications from surgery . His daughter , Lisa Briskey , a Laguna Beach High School graduate , her partner , Martin Byrne , and two of Joe ’ s three grandchildren were at his side .
While a player at Utah State , Joe ’ s claim to fame was he pitched against a great Arizona State team , including future Hall of Famer Reggie Jackson and future major league all-stars Rick Monday and Sal Bando .
Joe loved everything about life in Laguna Beach and was a well-known , friendly presence on the benches and boardwalk of Main Beach . That ’ s where he spent countless hours visiting with friends and neighbors , occasionally shooting baskets and enjoying the surf , sunsets and passersby .
There wasn ’ t a person he would not talk to , a dog he would not pet , a sport he wouldn ’ t bet on , or a friend in need he would not help . May his memory be a blessing .
Born in Park City , Utah , Joe was the son of Tom , a silver miner , and Angel Briskey . He grew up in Provo , Utah , and attended Provo ’ s St . Francis High School , where he was a two-sport letterman in basketball and baseball all four years and Prom King his senior year . After leaving Utah State , Joe joined the Marines and was stationed at Camp Pendleton . He moved to Laguna Beach in the early 1970s .
Along with his daughter Lisa , Joe is survived by his sister , Bonnie Briskey Andrews of Tucson , Ariz ., brothers Tom Briskey of Seattle , Wash . and John Briskey of Orinda , Calif . Brother not by blood but by choice , Tom King of Dayton , Nevada , and three grandchildren Avery Byrne , of San Francisco , Dylan Byrne of Los Angeles and Olivia Byrne , of Long Beach .
Plans for a Celebration of Life are pending .
