He motivated many people, young and old, to get into skating, and continued to encourage them even after an injury took him out of the sport. He loved to camp with family and friends, and enjoyed fishing and hiking. Joe had a love for racing, whether it was racing figure eight at Painesville Speedway, or RC cars, or just being a spectator, he loved it all. He was a gamer, and enjoyed streaming his games and interacting with people in his live streams. Joe found a lot of support from the gaming community during his battle with cancer. He played many instruments, and enjoyed listening to all types of music, but he especially loved live music. He was a member of the NL Bicycle Club, and he enjoyed cycling, even in the winter. Joe was a sports fan, he always rooted for the Indians, and always loved going to opening day. He was a die hard Detroit Lions fan, but enjoyed cheering on the Browns with his buddies on Sundays with some good food and good beer. Joe was the front man, designated beer drinker and electric rocking chair rider for The Amazing Charlie Baker Boys! Joe was a wonderful husband and father, he had a smile and a laugh that is unforgettable, and he will truly be missed by everyone who knew him.
Joe is survived by his wife of nine years, Molly (Ratcliffe) Doeing, daughter, Sam Doeing, sister, Jennifer Dowd, and faithful furbabies, Rudy and Cooper.
