Joseph was united in marriage to Carol Ann Niesen, on June 22, 1985, at St. Paul Catholic Church in Racine.
Joe graduated from J.I. Case High School in 1976. He worked as a die caster for InSinkErator for 36 years until he retired in 2014. Joe valued the friendships he made in his career and kept them alive following retirement through regular lunches with coworkers.
