When we pray the Litany of St. Joseph, we recite: Patron of the Dying, pray for us. St. Joseph is also known as the Patron of a Happy Death. There’s no mention in Sacred Scripture about how or when St. Joseph died. The last time the Gospels mention St. Joseph is right after he and Mary find the twelve-year-old Jesus teaching in the temple in Jerusalem. One can deduce that St. Joseph died sometime between then and when Jesus begins public ministry, some eighteen years later.
