He was born on April 3, 1937 in Oklahoma City, OK. to Joseph and Verda Canady, the eldest of three sons. Possessing a strong and prideful work ethic, he enjoyed a 33 year career as a journeyman machinist at Belshaw Brothers in Seattle, WA. He loved motorcycles, classic cars and was a long time member of the Resurrection Motorcycle Club. Joe lived a colorful life, having a unique gift of gab, crazy sense of humor and an infectious laugh. He will be lovingly remembered as "one of a kind." He is survived by his wife of 27 years, Sharolyn, sons: Joseph III (Laurie), Tony, Troy, daughters Debbie (Jim), Brenda (Howard), Teresa and his brother James, 11 Grandchildren, and 1 Great grandson.
