On April 19, 1958, he married Ardeth C. Gross; she passed away on Dec. 23, 2000. Joe retired from Hobart Corp. in 1985. He was a member of the Lion’s Club of Aurora and the Bremen VFW. Joe was a diehard Notre Dame Football fan; he also enjoyed the outdoors and working in the yard. Joe cherished his family, and loved to spend time with them.

Joe is survived by three children, Pamela (Jim) Ernsberger, Bremen, Alison (Mark) Fink, South Bend, and Glen (Patty) Allmon, Las Vegas, Nev.; three grandchildren, Quenton Ernsberger, Grayson Ernsberger, and Miranda Allmon; and a brother, Dennis (Sue) Allmon, Aurora, Mo.

To respect his wishes, there will be no visitation. A memorial service to celebrate Joe’s life will be held at a later date. The family asks that any donations in his name be made to the Alzheimer’s Association, the American Cancer Society, Harbor Light Hospice or the Bremen VFW.

The family would like to thank Harbor Light Hospice for their care.
