Joe was born October 30, 1939 in Lacrosse, Wisconsin. He was a loving and dedicated husband, daddy, pepaw, son, brother and uncle.

He loved working in his garden and building things such as cabinetry, model cars, trains, airplanes and other things.

He was a huge cheese head (for those of you not familiar with that term, he loved the Green Bay Packers) even when they had losing seasons…it upset him but he still watched them and yelled at the TV. Joe is survived by his wife of 48 years, Penny Lou Erlewein, his daughter Margaret Ann Donathan and her husband Mark Allyn Donathan, Son Adam Victor Erlewein and his partner Jason Fox and Daughter Carolynn Rose Mayhew and her husband Christopher Lee Mayhew.

If love could have saved you, you would have lived forever! ! !
