Joe Freeze Obituary

Joe Dennis Freeze, of Fair Play, MO, departed this life on Saturday, October 26, 2024, in his home at the age of 77.

He was an avid Quail Hunter, and loved trotline fishing for bigger flathead catfish at nesting time. People said he was a hard-working guy who started at a young age milking cows and hauling hay. Joe had been employed at Bolivar Farmers Exchange, Litton Industries, and Hallmark Cards. He also worked at clearing brush from under power lines. Joe also did what he said he would do. His motto was if he was 15 minutes early, he considered himself late. Joe found the Lord in 1988 and was baptized at the beach at Stockton Lake by Pastor Troy Gardner.

Preceding him in death were his parents, Jim and Lyndell Freeze; one brother, Jack Freeze; one sister, Mary Anne Freeze; one brother-in-law, Jerry Beach; and two special nephews, Jackie Freeze and Gary Beach.

Joe is survived by his wife, Sharon K. Freeze; his son, Brian Freeze and wife Brandi; two grandchildren, Trenton Freeze and wife Becca, and Mahayla Carter and husband Kyle; two great-grandchildren, Annabelle Freeze and Judd Freeze; one brother, Jimmy Freeze; one sister, June Beach; two sisters-in-law, Lorene Freeze and Sandy Freeze; and also by a host of other valued relatives.

The family received friends on Saturday, November 2, 2024, from 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. at Greenfield Funeral Chapel. Private family interment will be at a later date at Bona Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the Bona Cemetery or to the Long Cemetery. Online condolences may be shared at www.greenfieldfuneralchapel.com. Services are under the care of Greenfield Funeral Chapel.
