Obituary
BARNEVELD-Joseph "Joe" Carl Jordee, age 64, of Barneveld, passed away on Wednesday, May 15, 2019. He was born on Jan. 15, 1955, in Dodgeville, the son of Joe and Veronica (Trainor) Jordee. Joe graduated from Mt. Horeb High School in 1973. He married the love of his life, Jacqueline (Jacque) Miller, on July 8, 1988, at The Little Brown Church in Nashua, Iowa. Joe was the Director of Public Works for the Village of Barneveld allowing him to show his dedication to its residents on a daily basis. He enjoyed "scratchies", plowing, mowing and landscaping, watching the deer at "the plant" and fishing. Joe loved his big boy toys, model cars and trucks. He cherished his dogs, Copper and Bentley, and the people of Barneveld, especially his good friends.
Joe is survived by his angel, Jacque; son, Joseph Carl Jordee Jr. (Molly); daughter, Caitlin Jo Jordee (Kyle Frisch); grandson, Tyson John; two granddaughters, Rilynn Jean and Natilynn Rose; twin sister, Jackie (Harvey) Butterbaugh; as well as a niece, nephews, aunts, uncles and cousins.
He was preceded in death by his parents.
Thank you to Agrace HospiceCare for allowing Joe to have his wish of being at peace while at home with his family, friends and Bentley. A special thank you to my family at the WI Dept. of Public Instruction for allowing me to spend these two months with Joe.

I never got to meet Joe, but he was a very lucky man to have such a loving wife and family. As always, Jacque, you are in my heart and prayers. Miss you at DPI and am looking forward to your return when you are ready!

I saw Joe just about every day when I walked home from work at school. He was always driving the Jeep and a dog was in the back. We will miss his snow plowing next winter. He always made sure the streets were good early in the morning.

Joe was a wonderful friend to my family. We will miss his visits and the care he showed to our house and yard. Joe was such a loving friend to my brother Ralph in his time of medical problems and their bond was cherished by Ralph and our entire family. Steve and I appreciated everything he did for us. We will miss him so much. Sending Jacque and the entire Jordee family our heartfelt condolences.
