Dates
Our beloved Hubby, Daddy & Pappy went to be with the Lord on April 14, 2017. He was born on January 16, 1965 to Joe David Ward Sr. and Jerry Ward. He met the love of his life at age 16 and they recently celebrated their 30th wedding anniversary. They had two children that they adored and gave the whole world too. His dad got him into dirt track racing in '91 stating, "Jump in the water's fine!" We spent 22 years racing, "Families that play together, stay together!" Bubba loved to go camping, fishing and hiking as a family. He always told the people he loved how much they mattered and he loved being Pappy to his boys, Scooter and Goober, more than anything. Family is everything!
He was preceded in death by his mother, Jerry Ward.
He was survived by his best friend and wife, Terry Ward, his son Bubba Joe Ward Sr., wife Michaey, and sons Bubba Joe Jr. and Fletcher Luke, Daddy's Little Girl Karah Bowles and husband Chet, his mom and dad, Joe David Sr. & Barbara Ward, in-law's Joseph Witcpalek, Jimmie and Frances Fletcher, his brother Joe David Jr. and wife Debbie, as well as nieces, nephews, and numerous aunts, uncles and cousins.
The honorary pallbearers are Chet Bowles, Joshua Lovelace, Landon Ward, Rhett Blair, Marshall Godwin, Mike Loehman, best man "Butch" Billy Francis and "Dammit Boy" Marvin Taylor.
Services will be held at Grace Temple Baptist Church on Tuesday, April 18th, at 10:30am.
In Lieu of flowers the family ask for donations to be made to the West Texas Boys Ranch 10223 Boys Ranch Rd., San Angelo, TX. 76904.
"Thanks for being you!"
