Hello Mary Ann, Family and Friends. I knew Joe as his screen name 'Olds455' from the YouTube Tehachapi Live Train Cam chat. May the love of his life for 52 years Mary Ann know he was loved there. And not too overlook the children, Let them know. Bernie Hartman, Diane Lewis, Jill Hartman Crowder, Michael Parks and the grand kids, Caitlin & Lindsey Hartman, Feliciti Crowder; and precious “Dolly”...

In my book one of the best of friends and family I have ever meet and known. We meet online in a chat room him and wife talked about fishing Joe and wife invited me up too fish for steelhead right in thier home. I wish I could have stayed in touch more but with work and business owner was not meant too be. My prayers go out too Maryann his wife and family never have I meet anyone that can compare too them. I’ll meet you my greatest friend on the river bank with fishing rod in hand till then I’ll always remember you forever minerman Ricky prayers olds 455 see you on the other side

Want to let you know you are in our thoughts and prayers. Joe was one of the "good guys" that will be missed.

Sincerely,

Cassie and John Endres

I will always remember my Uncle Joe as this soft spoken gentle man. He didn't need to tell you he loved you, it was obvious in his actions. I will miss him.

Best brother-in-law a man could ask for. We shared, a gear head passion, spanning Indy cars, stock cars and especially NHRA for 50 years. I will miss you, my friend. God speed on your next life. Love you.
