Joe Edward Cannon

Our thoughts and prayers are with the family at this difficult time

I met Joe in 1972 when I went to work at Lion Country Safari in Grand Prairie as their in house controller. We became friends almost instantly, and that friendship lasted for 50 years. My wife and kids were also part of that friendship. As they grew to have their own families and moved around, they still always wanted to know what Dr. Cannon would advise them to do with any of their pets, Joe was a person who made friends easily and treated all people as such. He never talked down to people...

We loved Dr Cannon! A true voice for the animals. He was so sweet. ❤

What a wonderful friend, gifted Vet, and brother in Christ. Until we see you in heaven again, Alan & Sue Carlton

What an absolutely awesome man. Always sweet, kind, compassionate, empathic and graciously humble. Loved animals of all kinds. I first met him when he came to help us out at Dr Stephen Russell's Clinic in Morgan Mill, TX. I helped him many weekends at the Hamilton Animal Shelter where we vaccinated and he did the spay and neuters on as many dogs and cats as we could doing an 8 hr period. I was responsible for monitoring anesthesia during the surgeries. He was a great teacher and everyone...

I am glad the the Lord gave him the gift of helping and saving animals and he was passionate about it. He helped and saved many of mine. I have so many memories and stories about farm calls to my ranch. I will cherish them. I pray for his family at this difficult time.

I am very proud to be a cousin(three ways) to Joe. Always fun to be with. A great and humble person. He left his foot prints in a lot of places from California to Kentucky and hand prints on a lot of animals. I am going to miss that special guy. Family I am sad that I will miss his memorial service Sunday. Love to you all. Prayers and love from Judy and Jimmie.
