Joseph was born in Decatur, GA. on October 7, 1966. From the outside looking in, one might say that Joseph was handicapped and he did indeed suffer from physical disadvantages however, he did not let that keep him from living a full life. He worked extra hard to be a contributor to the world around him and he was successful in his endeavors. Joseph was an excellent auto-mechanic and helping other people with their automotive needs when they needed help gave him great pleasure. He loved to collect tools.

Survivors include his wife of 14 years, Regina Drier of Statenville; his son, Frederick Coach (Elaina Coach) of Valdosta and his daughter, Irene Fisher of Statenville. Also surviving is his mother, Margaret Drier of Ocala, FL.

Per his wishes, Joseph was cremated.
