Josef Touet
February 11, 1924 — December 13, 2012
Josef Touet of Stoneham, formerly of Somerville passed away on Thursday, December 13, 2012 at Winchester Hospital. He was 88 years of age.
Josef was born in Aachen, Germany in 1924. As a young man he served in the German Navy as a radioman. Before coming to America, Josef worked as a tool and die maker in South Africa for a number of months in 1957 assembling a pralette plant for Trumpf Chocoladen Factory. In 1958 he came to Cambridge to assemble a similar plant for the New England Confectionery Company, NECCO. This pralette plant brought Rollos and Skybar candies to America. At NECCO, Josef met Rita Sbraccia, executive secretary to the President. They married in September 1958.
After retiring from tool and die work, Josef discovered his passion for woodworking creating many beautiful pieces of furniture for his family and friends as well as smaller works of woodcraft.
When Josef could no longer do his woodworking he indulged in his lifelong love of music and his newest venture--surfing the Internet.
Josef was the beloved husband of the late S. Rita (Sbraccia) Touet. He was the devoted father of Maria Touet of Stoneham and Karl Touet and his wife Lisa of N. Reading. Josef was the dear brother of the late Maria Hilbrecht and her late husband Wolfgang. He was also survived by many loving nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.
