Joe Adare

November 25, 1942 — October 25, 2018

Joe Howard Adare (passionately known as Pa Pa), of Bastrop, Texas went

Joe Howard was born in Austin to Howard and Bessie Adare on November

Texas State University. He married his bride, Wanda Wright, on September
28, 1962 in Bastrop. He worked at L.C.R.A. for over 30 years as well as 10 years
with BISD after retiring from L.C.R.A. He dedicated many hours to the Little
League organization of Bastrop. He also, after fully being retired took on
mowing yards, and was known as Joe's mowing service.

Joe was happiest with his family gathered together and at his deer lease hunting
with his boys. He also looked forward to his "church time" with the First Baptist
Church Men's Ministry every Thursday morning at 7:00am at Texas Grill.
