Joe R. Strickland Jr.'s Obituary
Joe (Jody) R. Strickland, Jr. was called home by the Lord on November 7, 2019. Jody was born June 20, 1956. His greatest joy in life was being a grandfather and a great grandfather. He found happiness being around family and friends and always had a story or two to share with those around him. Jody was an avid hunter and fisherman and taught his grand children the joy of both. He fondly talked of times spent with friends at the hunting camp in Alabama. Jody enjoyed sports and started each and every day reading the sports section of the newspaper. He played football in high school and stayed a Gator's fan his whole life. He was preceded in death by his parents Joe and Peggy Strickland, and his brother Shane Strickland. Jody leaves behind many loved ones including Patricia Strickland and step children Alice Borrack (Darren Fountain), Gary Schoenagel Jr., Diana (Gerry) Nielsen, Tonya (David) Lewis; his sister Jeana (William) Wresh, many grand children, great grand children, nieces and nephews. Jody will be greatly missed by all who had the honor of knowing and loving him.
