Joe spent many years in the logging industry. Later he owned and operated his own excavating and caretaking business.

Joe took great pride living on Beaton's Lake and treasured the countless friendships he made over the years with his neighbors. He was especially proud of his grandchildren and absolutely loved spending time with them.

He was predeceased by his parents; a brother, Jeff Doleshal; and a sister, Melissa Smith.

In accordance with Joe's wishes, cremation has taken place.
