Joe was a loving, hardworking husband, father, grandfather and friend to all who knew him. He will be greatly missed. Prior to the founding of Joe's Septic Contracter's in 1965, which was started with just a shovel and wheelbarrow, Joe worked many years in the oilfield. His grandson Colt was his heart, and he enjoyed gardening, animals and working with his hands. He was a strong man of faith.
