In Memoriam

Joe Albert Westwood - Class Of 1962 VIEW PROFILE

Joe Albert Westwood

Joe Albert Westwood, son of Dr. Albert Harrison (1918-1997) and Christine Margaret (Butterfield) Westwood, was born 8 October 1944 in Bonne Terre, St. Francois County, Missouri.  He graduated from Okemos High School in 1962.  Joe died 29 April 2008 in Michigan.

Joe was married while in school (Michigan State) and completed osteopathic medical school in
about 1972. He entered private practice in Webberville and had three daughters. He moved his
practice to Holt and eventually opened a practice by himself there. Joe had another daughter
and a son with his second wife Sandy and resided in Holt until his passing in 2007. Joe had
many passions -- some good and some not so good. He loved the water, fishing and family. Joe
is survived by his mother, Christine (91), brother Jim and sister Carol, and all his children. If
anyone would like to reach out to me, feel free to share my contact information. I knew quite a
few of his classmates and would be happy to talk to them.
