Always embracing life with open arms, Joe had a wide range of hobbies and interests. He was a talented artist who loved to draw, and he found great pleasure in working on his cars.

His love of music was contagious, and he could often be found singing and dancing freely to his favorite tunes. A true adventurer at heart, Joe loved the outdoors and relished any opportunity to go hiking, swimming, or exploring the natural world. And of course, he loved to eat, always eager to share a meal with friends and family.
