In lieu of flowers, family and friends are making contributions to the Hurley Burn Unit in Flint, Michigan, in memory of Joe’s dedication to fighting fires.
Joe was born to the late Louis and Violet Foust on December 19, 1948. Joe proudly dedicated his career in service to Flint as a firefighter for 17 years. He was a member and leader of the Flint Fire Fighters Union Local 352. Prior to his career as a firefighter, Joe worked in various capacities for the City of Flint. He took pride in being a landlord and in providing well-maintained homes to his renters.
Joe enjoyed being surrounded by friends and family. He valued good company, fine food, and quality entertainment. He approached every task with perfection in mind, from the simple things in life like eating a slice of pizza (he always saved the best bite for last) to renovating his houses. Joe was always ready with a helpful tip or a cold drink and an open heart. His homes, in Grand Blanc or Elk Rapids, were welcoming and warm. Joe’s positive influence was felt by everyone who knew him, and he will certainly be missed by all.
Surviving are wife of 37 years, Mary Foust;
Daughter, Jacquelyn Geda and son-in-law, Kyle Geda;
Brothers, Louis and Jon Foust;
Many nieces, nephews and treasured friends.
The family wishes to thank everyone for the incredible outpouring of sympathy and love.
He was preceded in death by his sister, Karolyn Hughson.
