Joe Harrison Moreau, age 93, resident of Wellington, Florida and Beckley,/ West Virginia went home to be with the Lord surrounded by his family on Tuesday, May 24, 2022. He is a beloved husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather and friend to many.
Joe was born to Angie Nettie Moreau (Bowyer) and George Francis Moreau on July 15, 1928 in Fayetteville, West Virginia.
He is survived by his wife Anna Moreau, daughters Nina Papy (Mike) and Linda Latos (Andy), son Joe Moreau II (Elaine), sisters Jeanne Stewart (Milo) and Betty Haskell (James D.D.), stepsons David Jackson (Shonda) and Danny Jackson (Jane), 6 grandchildren, 10 great-grandchildren and many nieces and nephews.
Joe is predeceased by his parents Angie and George F. Moreau, brother George Moreau (Helen) and sisters Mary Beard (Malcolm), Margaret Hitchcock (George), Susan Noble (Cliff) and first wife Lou Henri Vieweg.
His love of nature was woven throughout his life-flying planes as a young man, designing his own campground for family and friends to come together at Sleepy Hollow, cruising yearly to many parts of the world, while enjoying swimming and golfing daily. He had a vision for Sleepy Hollow and created it during the past fifty years. He memorized the location of every rhododendron bush, waterfall, lake, trail and special rock to showcase on his property to fulfill his dream. He was happiest surrounded by his family out in nature!
Joe worked as a miner and entrepreneur during his younger years, becoming a successful home contractor and builder for 50 years in both West Virginia and Florida.
A Celebration of his Life will be a private event for his family.
Funeral arrangements have been entrusted into the care of the Lakeside Funeral Home & Cremation Care Family, "Where Every Life is Cherished & Every Family is Treasured"
