William Joseph Culbreath, affectionately known as Joe, passed away on November 15, 2025, in Wills Point, Texas, at the age of 59. Born on July 11, 1966, in Little Rock, Arkansas, Joe lived a life marked by creativity, kindness, and deep thoughtfulness.

Joe was a man of Christian faith who found meaning and solace in his beliefs. He often expressed gratitude for the time he had with his family and cherished those moments deeply. His gentle spirit and kind heart left a lasting impression on those who knew him.

He found joy and peace in woodworking, especially in building crosses-an expression of both his craftsmanship and his faith. Through this creative outlet, Joe shared pieces of himself with others in quiet but meaningful ways.

Joe is lovingly remembered by his mother, Virginia L. Culbreath; sisters Terri Bolin and Michelle Culbreath; and brother William Clyde Culbreath III. He also leaves behind nieces Suzanne Perales and her husband Salvador Perales Jr., and Shelly Marie Patrick; nephews William Clyde Culbreath IV, Ronald James Culbreath, Joshua Paul Patrick, and Adam Scott Patrick; great-niece Heleena Perales; and great-nephews Salvador Perales III, Ronald Tucker Culbreath, and Tyson Michael Culbreath.

He was preceded in death by his father, William Culbreath Jr., and his brother, Ronald Gene Culbreath.

Though Joe's journey ended too soon and not without struggle, he is now at peace. May his memory bring comfort to those who knew him and may the love he gave continue to echo through the lives he touched.

In honoring their loved one's wishes, the family will not hold a public service or gathering. They appreciate your understanding during this time.
