Joe was born a happy baby with a big smile on his face. His family did not realized that their happy baby boy was born with several health issues (Vaters Syndrome, chronic asthma and chronic bowels/ bladder syndrome). But he proved to everyone that he was a survivor and was a true blessing to his family.
With all of his health problems, he never stopped living his life to the fullest. He attended Withrow International High Schools, where he received his high school diploma with honors. He later attended Soar,where he received his associates degree. Joe also became a great father to three amazing children, who loved everything about their dad!
Joe enjoyed working with his hands, especially when it came to drawing, writing (music) and cutting hair. The biggest day in his life was the day he became a father. Family was everything to him. His smile would always light up a room. To know Joe was to love him. Joe showed and expressed his love for people in many different ways.
