Joel Ford Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Urban Winkler Funeral Home - Connersville on Dec. 17, 2025.
Joel Ford, 40 of Connersville passed away on Tuesday, December 16, 2025. He was born on June 18, 1985 to Kimberly Logan.

Joel had been working at American Owned and Towing.

Joel was a member and attended Fellowship Church in Richmond. He cherished his time spent on Sundays attending church and going to eat lunch with his daughter.

An avid hunter and outdoorsman, Joel cherished time spent in the woods and fields, especially the quiet mornings and evening spent watching the deer from the front porch. Those moments reflected who he was patient and thoughtful. He was a gifted carpenter; known for his remarkable ability to do anything he put his mind to. Joel was kindhearted and had genuine love for people.

Joel is survived by his daughters, Jocelyn Ford and Taylynn Ford; his brother, Josh Ford; many aunts, uncles, nieces and nephews.

He was preceded in death by his mother; and his sister, Maria Lore.

Pending arrangements will be posted when they are available.
