Joseph Biwer Obituary
December 24, 1982 - April 18, 2025
Joseph John Biwer, age 42, formerly of Johnson Creek, Wisconsin, passed away unexpectedly on Friday, April 18, 2025, at his home.
Joe was born on December 24, 1982, in Fort Atkinson and grew up in Johnson Creek. He most recently resided in Beaver Dam with his brother, Nate and biological mother, Cindy.
Known for his warm heart and loyalty, Joe worked at Arby's for over twenty years, where he built strong friendships and was always ready to lend a helping hand. He was the kind of person who showed up when you needed support. Joe's presence will be deeply missed by his family, friends, and all who knew him.
Joe is survived by his mother, Kathy Biwer, and biological mother, Cindy Emmons; his brothers, Brian (Shawn) Biwer, Nathan Biwer and Alan Strahota; his sisters, Michelle Biwer and Evelyn Emmons; nieces Payton, Parker, Presley, Evyan, and Tyler; and nephews Tanner, Samuel, and Wulfrano Jr.
He was preceded in death by his sister, Becky, and his father, Daniel R. Biwer.
A memorial service to celebrate Joe's life will be held at 11 a.m. on Saturday, May 3, 2025, at St. Mary Magdalene Church, 242 Williams St., Johnson Creek. A luncheon will follow immediately in the church basement hall.
The Berndt-Ledesma Funeral Home has helped serve this family.

Please take care, all. I hope you can all find peace and joy in the life your loved one lived and all the lives he touched.
Hi, Joe. Junior and I built you a mausoleum in Junior's server - with moat, dug and decorated by yours truly in your honor - and everyone left you messages on signs and in books. There's a compass on your tomb and a map on the armor stand. Don't get lost, okay? I can't come pick you up from whatever crazy journey you went on this time. Safe waters, my friend. We'll all miss you <3

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends. Joe it was fun playing Minecraft with you and may you keep building crazy things in heaven.
