Obit from Sturgis Journal:
Joseph Leo Thomas Hice age 29 of Burr Oak, Michigan passed away Thursday, February 16, 2017 in Burr Oak Township due to injuries sustained in a motorcycle accident.
He was born March 23, 1987 in Sturgis, Michigan son of Steven and Jane (Cobb) Hice.

Joe was very active in the Sturgis Toy Run. He began volunteering his time with the organization before he was old enough to become a member. Joe loved riding motorcycles, had a real talent involving anything mechanical and will always be remembered for being the "adrenalin junky" he was.
