Joe’s bigger than life personality and contagious sense of humor made those around him feel blessed to call him a friend. He loved being a part of a community, hunting, fishing, playing cards with the “old timers and his friends”, and helping the Knights of Columbus with fish fries and other events. Joe volunteered for the Jackson Township Fire and Rescue for several years.
