Joseph Whipple Obituary

I met Joseph in Hawaii we were assigned to the same unit getting ready for deployment. Some of us had to do additional training at Ft. Jackson. He invited all of us to a party that his family was having. Knowing we were all thousands of miles away from family, he wanted to ensure we could be around loving people. I met some of his family, spent time with them and had a great time. Joe was always making sure everyone was ok, he was a great friend, and yes always had a smile. It seemed no matter what he was going through he was always there for others and if you where there for him, there was no telling how much he would do for you. This saddens my heart, I have compassion for you and wish you all love.

Growing up most of my childhood was spent around joe and his father and brother, I had the great blessing to work along side him once I was old enough and had the pleasure of hearing him and his brother butt heads about who was the "tile master" a title he proudly claimed at that time, that's one of many memories I will cherish forever..that and on the weekends listening to him and his father play hotel California by the eagles on the guitars and singing their hearts out..I will never forget you or the memories of my childhood, until we meet again joe...play the strings off that guitar in heaven with your father..God bless you

So sorry to hear this. My prayers are with you all.
