Joe and I were married from 1992 - 1996. During that time, my dad got very close to Joe and they had a wonderful almost father/son relationship. Joe and I divorced and my dad is getting on in years, just turned 78 and has been diagnosed with Altzheimer's. He loved Joe. Joe rebuilt the motor in his 1970 Ford truck. He speaks of him quite often and he would love to see Joe before he dies or loses his senses. If anyone knows where he is, it would be a blessing for my dad. He probably is retired by now and I have lost touch with him since he remarried. He was a Seabee and a welder and is from Albertville, Al. I would appreciate any help in finding him for my dad. Thanks so much, Sincerely, Pam (Williams) Beaty

This is soooo weird. I too was married to JOE!! We were married right out of high school and it didn't last long but our Dad's were friends. I was there when he lost his dad and now my Dad has passed. I am trying to find him to tell him because my Dad thought so much of him. If you find him, please let me know. gaye0814@live.com

Thanks

I married Joe in 2004, and we live in Pensacola..Joe gets along with my parents great, and he is a wonderful husband..I was so blessed to find such a wonderful person..This year will be our 7th year anniversary..
So sorry to hear about your father. Iam sure Joe and him had a fun time working on that truck together..Well I hope this helps you out.. Sandi Williams

Thank you so much for the information on Joe. My dad just turned 80 on March the 3rd and because he has been on Aricept for quite a while now, it has been wonderful and kept his disease from progressing as fast. He still gets forgetful but so far he still knows his family. I call it a blessing from God. If you could please tell Joe that daddy asks about him and speaks of him quite often and if it wouldn't be any trouble, if he could possibly send his phone number so my dad could call him. It would mean the world to him. I will ask my dad if he minds if I send Joe his phone number through you here. Joe was a terrific guy and a great husband to me and I loved him dearly, however he and my teenage daughters just didn't click and it was too stressful for all of us. My youngest daughter had many problems with ADD and I could not blame Joe for not being able to handle it. No hard feelings. It broke my heart when we split up but I know that it was all in God's plan and we weren't meant to stay together. I was rather harsh with Joe during our split, I was scared and much younger and so afraid of being on my own. Please tell him that I really am sorry for any hurt I caused him and that I hope that we can always be friends. I am getting too old to harbor bad feelings toward anyone. Joe was younger than me and he swept me off my feet and it really wasn't fair of me to marry him with 3 daughters when he wasn't used to being a father. Do ya'll have any children. How is his daughter Candace and his sisters and his mother? Is she still alive. I loved them all very much and have tried so hard to find them to see how they are through the years but have been unsuccessful. Again thank you for you reply and I so look forward to hearing from you again so I can tell my dad I found Joe. He will be so happy. My dad's only son died when he was 1 day old and Joe was just like a son to him and he loved Joe. He never loved my first husband, the father of my daughters, but he sure loved Joe and he is a great judge of people and he said he didn't blame Joe for wanting out of our relationship because of my children. My daughters were a lot to handle and I was trying to do it on my own and I sure made plenty of mistakes. But we got past it and they are all grown ups now and have their own lives. I just can't thank you enough for contacting me so I can tell my dad. He is going to be so excited! God bless you!

Just one last thing to make sure it's the same Joe Williams we are talking about. Joe has a tattoo with my name (Pam) on his shoulder and he was born Nov 30, 1964 and he's from Albertville, AL and his mom's name is Frances (the last time I talked to her her last name was Walther) and Joe has a twin sister. Also, are you and Joe on facebook. If you are, I can look you up and add you and show my dad that I found Joe. I am just so excited for my dad. He has asked about Joe for so many years and I have tried so hard all these years to find him for him. Thanks again.

Thank you so much Sandi. I'm so glad Joe found someone who makes him happy. I tried, I really did, but my children just took up so much of my energy and my time back then and also I got sick, was struck down with and diagnosed with fibromyalgia right before Joe and I split up and I have had to learn over the years how to live with it and adjust to it and I have arthritis really bad also. He really did deserve someone who had the time and the physical and mental well being to love him and take care of him and at that time I could do neither. So I am very thankful that he met someone like you who can love him like he deserves to be loved. God bless you. My dad's phone number is 662-418-6307, if Joe ever wants to call and talk to my dad, my dad would love to hear from him. Take care and I look forward to being your facebook friend if that's ok. I will look you up and add you today. Take care.

That's a bit sad. How's your father right now? Since he rebuilt his Ford truck, he may work in a car shop. I don't know, just trying to give some help. Anyway, I do hope your father sees him.
