Also known as "sportyguy33" around the various fishing sites. Unfortunately, Joe suffered a massive aneurism in his brain over the weekend, and passed away just about an hour ago. :(

T&P for his family and loved ones.

Never had the pleasure to meet Joe in person but we chatted here and there and I was a fan of his lure building and paint work!! Always seemed like a truly good guy....so very sorry to hear we have lost another one way too young and way too soon. RIP Joe.

joe passed away w/out any life insurance...there is a benifit auction on the other site to help his family.

Or health insurance, which means that the family is going to get stuck with about 4 days worth of hospital bills, in the ICU, on life support.

It's OK to say StripersOnline in times like this.
