Joseph Maroun Eid, age 67 of Beavercreek, OH passed away peacefully surrounded by his family on Tuesday, January 10, 2023. He was born January 3, 1956 in Beirut, Lebanon to Maroun and Josephine Eid.
Joseph is survived by his wife, Samira Eid; four children, Josephine (Shawn), Maroun (Rachael), Danny, and Micheline (Tarek); four siblings, Aida (George) Najem, Nazha (Albert) Azzi, Michel (Bernadette) Eid and Tony (Renee) Eid; five grandchildren, Navaeha, Natalya, Audrey, Aaliyah, and Samuel.
Joseph worked as a machinist at Accurate Tool and H&H tool before transitioning into the restaurant business with his wife Samira. He was the proud owner of 5 Star Chili for over 20 years. He worked hard to make sure his family was taken care of and felt loved every day.
Joseph enjoyed traveling with his wife and children to many different parts of the country. He enjoyed fishing, hunting, and watching his favorite football team (Cincinnati Bengals).
Joseph wore many titles: Husband, Dad, Brother, Son, Uncle, Grandfather (jiddo), and business owner, but singer was his most well-known title. He began singing at a young age and joined the stage with some of the most popular Lebanese singers in the USA. At every gathering with family and friends, he would be the life of the party and begin singing. As soon as he sang, people would be in awe, a voice so powerful that did not require any band. His singing would change the atmosphere and everyone around would clap, smile, and sing along.
He enjoyed spending his evenings and days off with his family. His voice, character and heart will be remembered forever.
Memorial contributions in lieu of flowers can be made to Joseph and Samira Eid.
