He supported numerous worthy charities including the Parkinson's Voice Project.

Joe loved spending time with family and friends, playing golf, fishing, skiing, traveling and just loving life. He could walk into a room full of strangers and walk out with a room full of friends. He always knew how to make someone feel special and made sure all 4 of his sisters knew they were each his "favorite ". His priceless sense of humor and kind spirit will be remembered by all who knew him. We will all miss him but find comfort in knowing he is at peace and being reunited with Bebe and our dear ones who went before him.

"And on the seventh day, He lifted Joe up to heaven and welcomed him to the Kingdom of God." ... Doug Bennett
