Joe married Ann Bacon in 1974, they lived in North Henderson, and Joe worked at Maytag his entire adult life.  They had two children, Chasity and Chad.  Ann passed away in the early 90's.  Joe then married Melanie Love and lived in Lewistown.  He battled brain tumors for 8 years before passing away at the age of 48 in 2003.  Joe enjoyed working with his hands, building things and mowing his lawn.  He was my brother-in-law and loved my potato soup and home-made strawberry jam.  I miss you Joe.
