Joe K. Dugger

One of my favorite memories of Joe was him taking me fishing up near Denton when I was a young boy. He was driving a station wagon, backed it up almost to the shore line, he hobbled over on his crutches and we fished off the lowered wagon gate. 2 treble hooks on leaders, no sinker, and nothing but a slice of white bread cast out 30 feet or so. The cats would literally race across the surface dorsal fins exposed and the winner got a mouthful of bread and hooks! I'll never forget that day, and...

What an empty feeling to learn of the passing of an old friend and mentor. I will remember old fishing trips with you and Dick O'neal forever.

Wonderful memories! Wonderful man! My condolences to his family.

Joe D you were one of a kind. A man of style and charisma. You introduced me to the real estate development business and deal making, for which I will always be grateful. Rest in peace.

No one who met Joe could ever forget him. His determination, straightforwardness, generosity, sense of humor and joy of life made that impossible. My admiration and love for Joe had and have no limits.

The great holidays and family time. He had a passion for cooking. The jokes and story telling that made those around him laugh.
