COLUMBIA – Joseph "Joe" Edward Stevens Sr., 97, peacefully and gracefully went to join his Lord and Savior on Thursday, January 29, 2026.

Born on May 23, 1928 in Wampee, S.C., he was the son of the late Charlie Grover and Ruth Estelle Hardee Stevens. Joe’s life was enjoyed driving a truck, being on Lake Wateree with his family, and planting his vegetable garden each year.
Joe is survived by his daughters, Doris Ann (Carl) Kendall, Jo Ann (Johnny) Boulware and son, Robbie (Sherri) Stevens; daughter-in-law, Sherri Ann Stevens; ten grandchildren; and 12 great-grandchildren. He was predeceased by his parents, brothers, sisters, wife Doris, and son Joey.
Our heartfelt thanks and gratitude go to the Amedisys Staff for aiding and providing the care and compassion Joe so richly deserved. He will be missed by all that knew him. Please visit the guestbook at www.dunbarfunerals.com
