He and Dorothy resided in Maine and are members of Passadumkeag Baptist Church. Joe was a maintenance man in hospitals and worked as a mechanic. He was a selfless man with a servant heart and loved to do for others. He was the cook for family feeds and loved us all dearly.He was predeceased by his parents; two sisters, Eleanor and Muriel; and a brother, Eugene.

After World War II, Joe gave his heart and life to our Lord Jesus Christ and made him his own personal Savior. Joe’s favorite book in the Bible was Job, of which he read through often and now claims Job 19: 25 & 26, “For I know my redeemer liveth and that He shall stand at the latter day upon the earth.” A memorial graveside service will be held at a later date for anyone to attend.
