I am a friend of Joe's way back from Jr. High and high school. Joe was the sweetest, kindest friend, and I was able to reconnect with him via Facebook and met his Sidnei, who I adored IMMEDIATELY.
We picked up 30 years later at Tao in NYC like no time had passed and Sidnei made us feel like we had known him forever. I am absolutely heartbroken that they are no longer with us and I feel so blessed to have reconnected, and have made several of Sidnei's recipes and loved his videos and tutorials. We were sad when they moved from NY, but were so excited in planning to visit them in Nashville. Their memory is such a blessing, they touched so many lives. Please keep us posted of any memorials in their honor.

The two of "The Boys" shared much love, peace and encouragement with all they met. God had blessed their union in many ways. My only regret is that I never had the opportunity to become friends with them!

I met Joe when he started his journey at Tractor Supply. Just 3 years in to my career I felt quite intimidated to meet the new VP that was coming in, but I was soon shown that Joe was not there to intimidate; Joe was there to encourage and empower. As a coordinator I did not really expect to be "seen" by the VP, but Joe showed me different here as well. Joe saw my potential and promoted me to report directly to him, so that he could help further my career and develop me where we saw I was most capable. This changed my life. I felt so empowered and strong; I felt I was capable to grow and be whatever I want to be. This was because of Joe. This story is so special because it explains Joe so well. Joe wanted everyone to be their best selves and truly feel like their best selves. His gentle, kind soul helped guide our team with such grace and determination to be the best version of Product Development and Sourcing. Though it was short, we are all so fortunate to have had the time we did with Joe at Tractor Supply. Joe will be very missed. I will forever cherish and remember the impact Joe made on our team's lives and my life.
My love and condolences go out to Joe and Sidnei's families. They will forever be in our hearts.

Sidnei worked as a private chef for us in Seattle. He and Joe were introduced to us by a mutual friend and we enjoyed several get togethers on the deck of the highrise where they lived -- watching sunsets over the Puget Sound. Joe and Sidnei were wonderful supporters of the Fred Hutch Cancer Center and the Obliteride bicycle fundraiser. They "got it" regarding the importance of their contributions.
These were two lovely men, a terrific and devoted couple, and their passing is truly tragic. Alas, they are together forever and we are better for knowing them.

We may never know why Sid and Joe left us so soon but we will always know why they lived. They were here to show us how life is lived. To model inclusion, kindness and steadfast love. Sid was the first person I "spoke" to every morning as we completed games, bantered about our day and complained if our coffee boys were not attentive enough:) How wonderful it was to start each day with a laugh and gratitude for good friends. And their gift keeps on giving. As I meet colleagues and friends from around the country and world, I feel a connection that will span time.

Joe is so very missed - he always encouraged those around him to reach for more, push their limits, and be better every day. His smile was infectious, and his demeanor radiated warmth and positivity, making every moment brighter for everyone he encountered. Beyond his remarkable professional qualities, Joe was a constant source of support and care for the entire team here at Tractor Supply. He was someone who always had your back, lifting others up with kindness and understanding. His presence is deeply missed here at TSC, and not a day goes by without thinking of how much he meant to all of us.
Joe´s legacy of compassion and strength will continue to inspire, and we are all better for having known him.
Personally, he was the best "boss man" I have ever had in my 25 year career. I had never felt so supported, so heard and so cared for - he was the first person who ever had a plan for me and supported my career aspirations. I will always remember his wave and his smile as he passed by my office everyday and I am so grateful for the short time that I did get with him. He will never be forgotten.

To Joe's family and friends,
I would like to extend my condolences to each of you and you will be in my prayers. I worked for Joe in Sourcing. I could always count on Joe for support and he was such a good boss to work for. He was always there or he would make himself available to discuss things to be sure that we had an effective plan or go-forward strategy. He will be sorely missed by everyone that worked with him and got to know him.

To the family and friends of Joe, I would like to extend my heartfelt condolences.
Joe was a kind and caring person to his very core. During his time at the company, he and I made several overseas trips which always involves long flights, car rides, three meals together every day and long hours together for fifteen or more days in a row. I can tell you there is no one better to travel with than Joe, always positive, on time, with a quick wit, with just the proper dose of sarcasm at just the right moment and just a pleasure to be around. Joe had the calmest demeanor no matter or stressful the situation could seem for example, we were lost in India with no cell service and no clue of where we were, he stayed cool and calm or that was the best poker face I have ever seen.
Joe really cared about his team, he and I both came into the office around 6am, we would discuss any topic or project we were working on, but within the first few minutes every morning he would always ask, "How is the team doing and is everyone doing OK" and it wasn´t about how they were working, it was about how they were doing in total. Although he had only been with the company for a year, he had already made a huge impact on the merchandising, sourcing and product development departments. The roadmap he put together for company will continue to produce great results for years to come. I have been with the company for over twenty years and Joe truly embodied the company values & culture.
He will be truly missed.
