September 24, 1934 - September 22, 2018
Joe was born in Rossburn MB. He is survived by his wife Lucille, sister Margaret and step-children Lynn, Deidre, Darryl and Debbie.

For thirty-seven years he served in the RCAF, retiring in 1989 as Base Chief Warrant Officer in Cold Lake AB. Joe was involved in hockey, football and curling. He also enjoyed hunting and fishing. Joe did odd jobs for friends and neighbours, expecting no compensation, telling them to "pass it forward". In his retirement he spent many hours volunteering at the Lakeview Community Centre in Anglemont and in Salmon Arm at the SPCA and in the kitchen at the Fifth Avenue Seniors Activity Centre.

Joe was a pilot with his own airplanes, flew gliders and was a glider instructor. He loved being in the air.

A service to honour his life was held at the Lakeview Community Centre in Anglemont BC on September 29.
