I was looking through youtube (as i do every night til this day) approx 5 yrs ago and stumbled upon papa joe and i started watching some of his videos and thought this was a channel i could get into as ive always enjoyed the aspects of trucking, but due to my disability never would get a chance to do. After watching a few videos i decided to comment and i guess my comment wasnt appreciated cause i got a "no sugar added" comment and thought "oh ok, well maybe i wont watch this channel, cause he already dont like me"...I decided to continue watching and boy am i glad i did. Even tho our first encounter wasnt a great one, the friendship and brotherhood that has developed over the yrs has been absolutely awesome. I would not trade 1 second of it for anything in this world. The countless hrs we have spent talking, the joking back and forth, the laughs we have shared, the meetings we have had, has all been some of my most memorable moments in life that i will cherish for the rest of my life. Anytime I was down and there has been several times especially in the last few months. I knew i could call papa joe and you would pick me right back up and advise me of other ways of looking at things. I never imagined one comment would create such a great friendship, not just a friendship, but a family bond, cause papa joe is considered my family. I could be here for 3 days writing what you mean to me and it still wouldnt be enough time to express it all. I will def miss it all. Never doubt and forget I love you brother. Sincerely JJ
I was late to your videos but sir, I’ve enjoyed the life lessons and talks you gave us all much like I missed from my own grandfather. Much respect sir and thank you 🙏🏼 ❤
Papa Joe, I have to tell you and your kin: I watched so many of your videos over the past 6 years and your experience in trucking helped me during my trucking journey. You helped me learn the details and tricks about trucking that no one else gave a damn to share, but you did. Thank you for your stories, thank you for your experiences, and thank you for sharing your life with us. We'll see you down the road.
Thank you for your comment. This channel was as mucj therapy for him as it was for yall. This channel is how I helped him with losing my little brother.
Always had a good laugh out of hearing the stories, Learned some wisdom aswell. Papa Joe. You were an inspiration to everyone who watched and listened! Take it easy up there, 10-4
God bless you papa joe.your amazing and I love your videos and all the straight up truth when you tell things the way you are.may to last days be amazing.
I never considered trucking. I stumbled upon Papa Joe's videos and just liked hearing his perspective on life. It's crazy to think he'll be gone soon. Thank you for putting out this content. You left a positive impact on the world through your shared wisdom
"God loves you, and so do I." I think we all need to hear that sometimes. I enjoyed the hangouts on youtube; my thoughts are with family and friends of Papa Joe.
Dear Papa Joe, As we cherish every moment with you, I find myself reflecting on the incredible impact you’ve had, not just on my life, but on all those blessed to know you. Your legacy, evident in the wonderful son you raised, is a testament to the love, strength, and guidance you've provided. Your son, an amazing father and husband, is a reflection of your enduring spirit and the values you've instilled. Through him, your wisdom, kindness, and love continue to touch our lives. He embodies the best of you, and for that, I am profoundly grateful. Thank you, Papa Joe, for everything. For the laughter, the lessons, and the love you've shared so generously. You’ve brought immeasurable joy and warmth into our lives, shaping a family that honors your spirit every day. As we hold onto these precious moments with you, please know how deeply loved and respected you are, and how your legacy will forever resonate through the beautiful family you've helped shape. With all my love and deepest gratitude, Your daughter in law ❤
Good Morning, Brother. I had a feeling this video was coming, and as expected.. no sugar added. You are a great friend.. a real friend. I'm honored to have met, and hung out with you in person. The long talks while you were driving the big truck, or hanging out with Grandma on the porch. All memories I'll never forget. Rest assured, Brother, I'll be checking in on Grandma Rose & Little Joe. You have my word on that. Love you my Brother. Respectfully, Your Favorite Mexican 🫡♥️🙏
When we were deciding to start trucking we came across your videos. We became addicted to watching you, especially through the pandemic. You had so much good advice and insight and made things make sense. But…my favorites was joining you for Sunday service. You will be remembered constantly while we are on the road and through your recipes and anytime I see a shining star. That’s what you are. I extend my condolences to Grandma, Little Joe and the rest of your family. Sending all our love your way and know that there’s only good after this life. Watch over us while we are out here and know you made a huge, positive impact in our lives. 💚💚💚💋🙏🙏🙏
Thank you for your kind words. My dad has asked that I convert his videos into shorts by topics so people can get the important parts. So please be looking out for edited and reworked videos in the future.
I'm really gonna miss you Papa Joe. I can't even begin to describe how much i learned from you about trucking and God and cooking and just about life in general. I'm so grateful and honored to have known you and grandma Rose and I'm so thankful for all that you taught me and all of the countless hours we spent on the phone while we were both out there chasing miles and cussing 4 wheelers. You were a great mentor to me and the amount i learned from you always made me feel like i was taught by the best of the best. You were my mentor and a father figure and one of the best friends the good Lord ever blessed me with and as much as it hurts me to say goodbye, i know that you're going to be in a place where the only roads you will travel are paved in Gold. So for me to want to keep you here is selfish. So goodbye to you my old friend. I'll never forget the things you taught me or the time i stayed at your house and was baptized in your pond and all of the great food you filled me up with and all the love you guys showed me. You'll live on in my heart and memories until i see you again with our father Jesus Christ. God bless you Papa Joe and grandma Rose and all of your family. You're all in my prayers. 🙏
Farewell Papa Joe and thank you for letting me virtually hang out with you over the years. I know that many of us watched but didn't comment but your words were heard and appreciated. Someday I hope to see you on the other side and goodbye.
i been watching u for like 5 years now ive learned alot from you about being prepared in life and doing the little things right, and the cooking videos as well i hope u got to live life how u wanted god bless
Stumbled back on this and wondered if papa joe is still with us..his videos and his willingness to help means alot when you get out on the road..thanks Papa Joe
Papa Joe is still with us. He is still fighting the fight. Thank you on his behalf, your kind words. His videos were intended to pass on the knowledge he had gained over 30 years behind the wheel, staying between the yellow and white lines share his videos or channelwith new drivers you know so his legacy will continue. Thanks (Dr. Joe).
Dad, I love you more than i could ever tell you and will forever miss you. After Nate's passing, we began this channel together, a legacy that I will proudly share with the kids as they grow older. It will serve as a No-Sugar-Added reminder of their Papa Joe, especially for Amber, who's only 3 now. I promise to keep our promis and your channel alive, continuing to add videos as the kids grow and as I embark on new journeys after completing my Ph.D. Please know that my love for you is boundless, and though you may ascend to heaven, you will always hold a special place in my heart alongside Nate and the friends I lost in the military. I am endlessly grateful for the relationship we've shared and only wish I could have done more to get you out of that truck sooner so you could enjoy a retirement you dreamed of and been able to relax after many years of supporting us. My love for you is eternal, Dad. There will never be another Papa Joe, and in honor of your memory, I've decided to adopt the title Dr. Joe on RUclips, as I could never assume the mantle of Papa Joe, but I hope to carry on your legacy and channel in my own way. With all my love, now and forever. Your Son Little Joe.
Prayers for you and your family, Little Joe. Your dad is and was one amazing man. I feel blessed to have met him and to have shared time on RUclips with him. God Bless him and yall as well.
Joe I will see ya at the next Truck stop my friend. Would you please tell my wife & little girl I will be with them as soon as I am done with this load.
Thank you for the kind words sir. We will all miss him. I plan repost some of his videos into short clips as wisdom from papa joe or something so we can all listen to him more.
I have really enjoyed your videos. My grandfather died 5 years. You reminded me of him. You will be missed and I'll see you in Heaven one day my brother.
I started to watch you a few years back. I did stop but coming across this is just.... sad to be honest. Research about about the Eastern Orthodox church. RIP Papa Joe, may you come back from the dead when Christ comes back, amen.
HI Joe... We spent a lot of time chatting during your lives... In the far past l suggested you to stop smoking. I did it many times... But you didn't budge... Now l am the one who are struggling with excessive smoking... So my heart is in pain. So now rewatching you is motivating me to stop doing that. Thanks for the beautiful nights you share with us, talking about life, politics, religions. Sharing with us the best advise ever. You'll stay in my heart forever.
Thank you. He made the videos to share his knowledge and leave his wisdom behind just for this situation. Please feel free to go back and watch some if the older ones. I also plan to try and reorganize and edit to release his videos in the future
God bless you, brother. We’ll take it from here. Thank you for everything. It’s not goodbye, it’s see you later. And with the way the world is going, we’ll all be gttg called home soon. Godspeed. If you get up there before me, tell my dad I miss him. I appreciate how you helped me and dad out when we were struggling at Volunteer. Driving that 79 cab over in Florida w no ac in the summer! Ha! Good times. That thing got about 3mpg! But it would run a hundred miles an hour! Not like the governed, aero cabs everybody has now w cameras, and collision avoidance and such. We would run two paper log books, and we still would use paper maps… kids today just have no idea.
