Joe met Judy Kiser as a teenager in church at Savanna, Oklahoma and they were married for over 65 years. He always told people he had been married "all of his life." To this family they had one daughter, Dana, her husband Marc and a very special grandson, Rio Bonham. Joe's life took on more meaning as he guided Dana and uplifted her in life. He was "her" Daddy. Grandson Rio completed his picture in 2001. Joe did not miss an occasion to attend and support Rio's activities. He was "Rio's Papa" and proud to be so. Being near Marc, Dana, and Rio on the farm and traveling with the family to Cottonwood Canyon, Yellowstone, and Alaska was the joy of Joe's retirement years. He led "Team Joe" as together the family harvested pecans and shared in the joy of raising American Quarter Horses. Joe also enjoyed a special relationship with his nieces, nephews, and their children as they played and worked together. Joe's blue eyes, smile and loving ways brightened life for so many. The family wishes to thank his doctors and the nursing staff at Texoma Medical Center for the care and love they provided their loved one over the past months.
