Family was always a top priority for Joe, and he showed this by devoting his time to them. His daughters will always remember playing ball in the yard, walking around the neighborhood and dancing on his feet, as being some of the best times of their childhood. He was also a wonderful grandfather that adored his grandchildren. Though family was always priority for him, his relationship with the Lord came first. He and Ann were members of First Baptist Church Hendersonville for 49 years, where he played a very active role and lived out his faith. Joe enjoyed food of all kinds and he was an avid golfer.
Joe will live on forever in our memories as a hard-working, devoted, and loving husband, father and grandfather. He touched the lives of many and will be missed by all who knew him.
