Joe was born on June 21, 1925 in Hampton, Georgia to B. B. Smith and Emma Pearl Fields. He was a proud United States Army Veteran. Later in life, he owned a glass company named Store Fronts, Inc. until his retirement.
Joe loved the Lord and was a faithful member of New Testament Baptist Church. His favorite songs were "Where Could I Go But To The Lord," "I'm Getting Ready To Leave This World," "I Know A Man Who Cares" and " The King Is Coming."
His life will forever be remembered and cherished by his loving family and friends.
