There is no record of the age of the disciples of Jesus.
all of them died for jesus
According to the Holy Bible, the disciple whom Jesus specially loved, was John, but He chose them all - even Judas!
Jesus did not direct any disciple to create a universal church. Jesus commissioned all his apostles to go out to all nations, preaching and baptizing them. Jesus, himself, created His Church.
All who repent, get baptized and follow Jesus by imitating Him - meaning of disciple.
All of the apostles and Jesus were Jewish, however, they began Christianity.
The apostle called the beloved disciple by Jesus was the disciple John, who was the youngest of all the disciples. And also died last , as ,many were killed. before theoir time John sat with Jesus on the table next to Jesus.
All 12 disciples were men
------------------------ John's Gospel talks of a 'disciple whom Jesus loved' but does not identify that disciple. The second-century Church Fathers noticed that whenever the book talks about the disciple, it does not mention John and, on this evidence alone, decided that this disciple must therefore be John. Like all the New Testament Gospels, John's Gospel was written anonymously, but the Church Fathers came to the conclusion that the author must be the 'disciple whom Jesus loved' and, since they had decided this disciple to be John, the Gospel author was the disciple John. The second century reasoning was merely conjecture and is not accepted by modern biblical scholars. If the 'disciple whom Jesus loved' was closest to Jesus, we still do not know who that disciple was.
The only disciple not to desert Jesus was 'the disciple Jesus loved' - John, who was present with jesus' mother Mary, Mary Magdalene and other women at the place where Jesus ws executed.

All of the disciples were his friends but I think the friend you are refering to is the disciple John.
Saint Joseph is considered a disciple of Jesus because he played a vital role in Jesus' life as his earthly father, providing guidance, protection, and care during Jesus' formative years. Through his actions and devotion to Jesus, Saint Joseph demonstrated unwavering faith and obedience to God's will, making him a model of faith for all believers.
Jesus clearly said that to be disciple of his one must be ready to forgo both family and friends as well as wealth to be a disciple of his, all must be forsaken to follow him. Even wen a man said I will bury my father and come , it weas not correct.
