Joe loved living on the farm where he grew up and making improvements with many tools, some purchased and some homemade. He loved riding horses, his lap dogs Snoop and Chachi, playing music and entertaining, crossword puzzles, doodling, and the ID channel.
He volunteered at Deer Creek Baptist Church, where he was a member. Joe never turned down a person in need and never met a stranger. He wishes you all a "ducky day!"
