Joseph Jeanty

He enjoyed anything outdoors including fishing, hunting, 4-wheeling, snowmobiling, mopeding, and hiking.  Joey was also an avid sports fan, always following the Green Bay Packers and Wisconsin Badgers.

Joey was born a leader who inspired so many people and gave the gift of friendship, support and acceptance to those he met. People were drawn to Joey, recognizing his loving heart and ability to give words of encouragement. He believed in the importance of family and treasured every family event.

Joey is survived by his parents, Victor Jeanty (Amy) and Laurie Kraemer (Kenny); brothers, Jesse Jeanty (Celina Puente) and Jadon Jeanty; maternal grandfather, Clarence (Patricia) Weigert; aunts, uncles and cousins.
