Martinville - A Mass of Christian Burial will be held at 10 a.m. on Friday, August 20, 2021, at Notre Dame Catholic Church in Martinville for Joseph “Ju Maker” Wiltz, 85, who passed away on Saturday, August 14, 2021, at his residence. The family requests that visiting hours be observed at the funeral home from 7 a.m. until 9:30 a.m. on Friday. Interment will follow at Queen of Peace Cemetery in Martinville. Joseph was a devout Catholic and parishioner of Immaculate Heart of Mary Catholic Church in Lafayette. He worked for Guaranty Bank for many years and then worked for Albertson’s until his retirement. Joseph was known for being able to fix anything, which is how he got the nickname “Ju Maker.” He loved to watch the news and the weather and he enjoyed talking and telling stories about the old days. Above all, he loved spending time with family and friends. Joseph will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved him. He is survived by his sisters, Linda Lewis of Zachary, Audrey Stone (Ray) of Atlanta, GA, Gail Wiltz of New Iberia, Carolyn Wiltz of Martinville, Cynthia Boyo (Fred) of Houston, Texas, Patricia Wiltz of Martinville, Lois Batiste of Martinville and Donna Barras (Dwight) of Atlanta, GA; special niece and caregiver, Nicole Roberson (Robert) of Martinville; and godchild, Hailey Jean Roberson.
