Together they farmed near Crown Butte and raised seven children. They moved to Mandan in 1981. Joseph lived life to the fullest. He donated his time and efforts in various ways, some of which were serving on the Election Board at Crown Butte and the Mandan School Board. He was active with Meals on Wheels for 12 years. Joe was always available and glad to help wherever needed. He and Mathilda enjoyed many social events, which included a good game of pinochle, dancing and visiting with friends. Joe was always conscientious of maintaining good health by a daily routine of walking and later in life using his stationery bike. He was always careful to eat well but never found a chocolate he couldn?t enjoy! Joe had a sense of humor with a quick wit that all who knew him enjoyed immensely. Joe was faithful to the Catholic Church; prayer was a part of his life as he prayed his rosary daily. Above all he was kind and gentle, honest and sensitive to others needs. Joe will be deeply missed by his soulmate and wife, Mathilda, Mandan; his children, grateful and proud to call Joe ?Dad? are daughters, Arleen (Bob) Bakken, Bismarck, Cleo (Gary), Mandan, Brenda (Tom), Rosendahl, Grand Forks and Jody (Tim) Oden, Seattle; sons, Gary (Karen), Mandan and Randy(Leland), Seattle; grandchildren, Todd, Lance, Jeremy, Ryan, Ian, Nate, Whittney, Tanner, Eli, Jase, Wyatt, Sawyer, Jerrica and Teegan; great-grandchildren, Braden, Hunter, Bailey and Athena; and sister-in-law, Irene Miller, Mandan.
