Joe
My memories of you will last a lifetime. What a great impact you had on my life as a young boy growing up at Northside Baptist Church.We had some great Sunday school teachers,You being one of the best.I got so many S&H green stamps from you.You were always getting those stamps from filling your trucks up with fuel and each week you would give a book to whoever memorized the most Bible verses.There are not many men like Joe Hog.you were so giving of your time to us young boys. The trips we took are endless..I know I speak for anyone young or old who ever met you.they would say you were one of the Best..Look forward to seeing you again one day..you will never be forgotten

Joseph,
Met you when you were riding a Harley, and I a "Cushman". You always took time to visit and ask about my family. I would call and it was as if the years didn't exist. Say hello to Mom and Dad...we will miss you!

What a wonderful man. He was such a big part of my memories at Northside Baptist Church. My nickname was Bobwire! We all loved him. Can't wait to see him again with our Father.

As one of my father's best friends, Joe Hog was always welcome at our home and loved my mama's cooking. Everyone got a nickname. Even only a couple of years ago at Ben Smith's funeral, Joe looked at me and said, "Elaine Kay McMillian." I think of him as an uncle, one who loved everybody and held a special smile for each and every one. Elaine Fields Smith
