Joseph Franklin Powell -MACON - Joe Powell, 62, one of our loved ones has gone to Heaven. Memorial services will be held at 6 p.m. Wednesday at Snow's Memorial Chapel, Pio Nono Avenue with the Rev. Rex Odom officiating. Burial will be private.

Joe Powell, son of the late Samuel Powell, was better known as "Pop" to his family. He was better known to others as the prolific "Mr. Wrestling II". "The Imposter." Other than his family, his proudest achievement came on December 25, 1979 when he wrestled at the Omni in Atlanta. This was born the great "Mr. Wrestling II versus Mr. Wrestling II" match. So now from the big show on earth, he is in the big show in the sky!

He was a beloved father of four sons, David Powell, Jason Powell and Stephen Powell, all of Macon and Brian Powell of Monroe County; his mother Lillian B. Powell of Macon; his brother, Roger Powell of Jones County; his sister, Barbara Sullivan of Houston, TX; his companion, Nancy Price of Macon; five beloved granddaughters and several nieces and nephews.
