Joe was a veteran of the United States Air Force and was stationed in Greenland for a time during his service. He was a longtime active member of Clifton Baptist Church where he served as a Deacon and sang for many years in the church choir. Joe was dedicated as the “opener” of the church each Sunday, getting all the doors unlocked and lights turned on before his church family arrived for worship. He was retired after a 40 year career with Dairyman, Inc. Joe loved gardening, raising his beef cattle and whatever work was needed around his farm. He also enjoyed hunting, fishing and the outdoors. During his spare time, Joe liked to watch his favorite old Western TV shows and movies. He was always a loving husband, father and grandfather.
