Whereas, the son of Wiley and Minnie Hannibal Joe, Isaac Joe was born on June 24, 1915, in the early part of the twentieth century, and he has been witness to nearly all the remarkable social changes, technological advancements, and international developments that have transformed the world from that time into the second decade of the twenty-first century; and

Whereas, as a native son of South Carolina, Isaac Joe has made it his business to enhance not only the lives of his family but also the lives of all citizens of this great State. He has served as an inspiration to many through his lifetime of service, which began when he became an enlisted member of the United States Army in 1941; and

Whereas, following discharge from the military in 1947, Isaac Joe embarked on an educational path that took him to service as an educator and principal.
