He died on December 6 after his condition took a downward turn.
A statement from the family reads;
“Our hearts are stricken by the immensity of grief as we have lost an incredible husband, father, brother, son, and friend,” a family member wrote on a GoFundMe page set up to raise money for his wife and two girls.
“Our families have gained another guardian angel to watch over us during this unimaginable time.”
His mother in-law, Debbie Stewart, said the deceased was planning to surprise his two daughters when he fell from the roof.
She said: “Hailey [his wife] was inside decorating and he was outside getting the lights up so he could surprise the girls.”
The bereaved family will be spending their first holiday without Joe, who left behind his wife Hailey, 8-year-old daughter Gentry, and a baby daughter Blair, who is just 8 weeks old.
