Joseph had a passion for music and played the drums and guitar. There was nothing Joe liked better than an interesting conversation with a good friend. Joseph could have an engaging conversation with anyone. His truly happiest moments were when he was spending time with friends and family.

He loved his family dearly, and would do anything for them. He is survived by his step-children, Christin Breeding, Dianna Harper, David Stickler and Edmund Kortum. He has 12 grandchildren, Toby, Aaliyah, Khloe, Charlotte, Marley, Lilliana, Zoe, Kingston, Emma, Mason, Denver and Ridge. They were his whole world. He is also survived by his loving partner, Ronee Nelson who stayed by his side and cared for him even when things were difficult.

The family would like to thank all of the wonderful people who kept Joseph in prayer, held us up, supported us, and encouraged us through this difficult time.
Ronee and family I am so sorry for your loss. I know this has been a difficult time. I have worked with Joe for years at the Sheraton Downtown and he always had a story to tell. He was most happy after spending a weekend with his family, and his grandkids were the light of his life. They each and everyone gave him so much love and joy.
Joe and I used to enjoy talking about life and all of the crazy things we had done in our youth. I miss you my friend and I miss our talks. We find peace in knowing your are well and with family in a better place.
Nothing is greater than going through this journey we call life and knowing that you were loved.
