Joseph Shotliff Obituary

Henderson - Joseph Robert Shotliff, 67, of Henderson, MN, passed away on September 24, 2025. A Time of Visitation will be held on Thursday, October 2, 2025 from 11 AM - 2 PM with a Funeral Service at 2 PM at Ballard-Sunder Funeral & Cremation, 104 1st St. W., Jordan, MN. Followed by a motorcycle-led Burial Procession to Calvary Cemetery. An additional celebration will be held for Joe at 3:00 PM on Friday, October 3rd, 2025, at Charlie's, 523 Main Street, Henderson.

On April 26, 1958, Joe was born to Robert and Ruth Shotliff of Jordan. Where he grew up as one of 9 siblings in their brick Home near the Waterfalls. Joe married Tammy Lewis, and together, they raised a family of 4 children.

Joe was a competitor. Gifted with strong will, sharp focus, disciplined skills, and raw strength. Whether he was shooting pool or playing cards with family, friends, or strangers, he always tried to win. He enjoyed the outdoors. Music spoke to his soul. He was a supportive father and a reliable friend. He could always be called on for a favor. He sweated gallons and never complained. And in his later years, he had Robin Crosby at his side.

Joe was a great man. Loved and respected, he will be deeply missed and remembered fondly.

He is survived by his children, Angie (Jason) Fernandes, Chris (Sarah) Shotliff, Curtis (Katelyn) Shotliff; grandchildren, Mason, Conner, Gavin, Jackson, Josephine, Gabriel, Ezekiel, and Luella; partner, Robin Crosby; sisters, Mary Ann Mittelstadt, Peggy Shotliff, Paula (Todd) Williams, Bonnie Shotliff, Gina Shotliff; brothers, Tony (Mary) Shotliff, Nick Shotliff; and other loving family and friends.

He is preceded in death by his son, Bobby Shotliff; parents, Robert and Ruth Shotliff; sister, Suzie Shotliff; infant brother; Steven; and brother-in-law, Joe Mittelstadt.
