Joe honorably served his country in the 1st Cavalry Division during the Vietnam War from 1966 to 1968. His time in service reflected the courage and dedication that defined much of his life.

Joe was preceded in death by his parents, Clarence Weatherford and Venita Bishop ; his siblings, Wynn, Ann, and Jim; and seven precious angel babies who he now holds close again.

His easy smile, steady presence, and gentle spirit made him someone people felt safe with—someone deeply cherished.

Joe Weatherford will be remembered for his service, his devotion to family, and the love he gave so freely. His memory will live on in the hearts of all who knew him.
