It's hard to believe that it has been 7 years since we said goodbye. I still think of you as such a great guy and fondly remember all the good times. I know we'll get together again on the other side.

Joe, I miss you every day, but I know you are smiling down from heaven watching over us. Softball is not the same without you joking around every Friday night. Thanks for the tips to convert my fastpitch swing into a slowpitch one. I'm going to figure it out one day! Love you always & forever <3

Joe, you are missed. We look at these pictures and our hearts ache. We will always remember the good that you brought to our child, Landon. When his dad could not motivate him to be his best at the plate, you always knew what to say to him. When we are around your children, we will always share our best memories with them. Be at peace Coach Joe. Shine those rays of sunshine on Dawson and Bailey. You will always be in our hearts.

Joe and Family, This hit me hard last night at the ball field when I heard the news. Just a few months back my son and I stop by to watch some baseball and there you were a face that never changed. We talked for a quick second then you went back to being that father so into the sport we all loved. Never did I think that would be the last time we would spend a moment around a ball field together. Jason and Family my thought go out to you in this time of pain. RIP

I like to believe that when we lose someone close to us they still live through us & give us strength. The time we have spent with those we've lost makes them part of us. No one will ever be able to replace Joe Ball. He was really special to all that knew him. He was a poker player, a father, a good friend & just all around great man. You will be missed by all. R.I.P. Mr. Ball
