Joe was a ray of sunshine. Anytime he walked in the door, the crowd lit up with his funny, loving, courageous personality. No one was a stranger to Joe. He loved spending time with his wife, Christine, together for 27 beautiful years. You could find them at any of the local spots; Twisted Tuna, Leftys, Sailfish Brewing, Tailgators, House of Brews, Mets stadium, Cruises, football games, friends backyard BBQ'S and the list could go on and on. He loved being on the golf course with his buddies, going to concerts, cheering on the Detroit Lions, drinking around the world at Epcot, nightly walks with his dog, Toby or just hanging in the garage with his wife and friends. Joe enjoyed working his last 8 years for Southern Eagle Distributing.
Joe is survived by his soulmate, Christine Wilkerson, daughter, Ellen Wilkerson, sister, Katherine McCallen, step sister, Lori Savage, step brother, Al McCallen Jr. and nieces and nephews. He is predeceased by his parents, Diane and Alan and brother, Ed Rappaport.
