He graduated from Little Falls Community High School.  He worked for the Hennepin Paper Company for over 40 years.  He treasured his cabin on Fish Trap Lake, where he enjoyed fishing for many summers. Joe was united in marriage to Margaret (Hayes) Witt on July 28, 1975 at Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church in Little Falls. The couple made their home on the West Side of Little Falls for many years. Joe loved gathering with his many friends at the West Side Bar for morning coffee and shaking dice. He also enjoyed his trips out west to Wyoming hunting Antelope, grouse hunting locally and making new friends along the way.  Joe enjoyed gardening, taking care of his lawn and old tractors.  He was a faithful member of Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church and the Knights of Columbus Council #1804.
