Joe was an avid fan of his grandkids. They were his pride and joy. You would see him at many sporting events cheering them on and reminiscing with people. He spent countless hours watching videos of his grandkids’ games.
He would tell stories of helping his Dad on the dairy farm, recollected memories from the Ohio State Highway Patrol and the many auctions he called. Joe was a man that always let you know where he stood. Most knew him for his honesty and sarcastic humor.
