A retiree of Cobb EMC, Joe was known for his contagious laughter. His out going expressive nature kept all around him wondering what he would come up with next. Equipped with a kind heart, he conveyed to all his giving and genuine authenticity.

Joe enjoyed his music, Sunday School class, working in his garden, old westerns, the Atlanta Braves, his mother dressing, his “Baby Girl” and of course “Elvis”. Special times were family and friends get togethers with food and stories.

Joe was a member of Euharlee Baptist Church.

Services for Joe will be held at Euharlee Baptist Church on Friday, April 21, 2023 at 1:00 PM.
