He was born August 10, 1931 in Lore City, to Anne Crevey Krall and Joseph Krall Sr.
Joe was raised in Lore City where he attended school and was an active athlete.  He graduated from Muskingum College in 1953.
He then entered the US Marine Corps and went on to Air Cadet training.  He was later assigned to the 3rd Marine Air Wing – serving a total of six years.
He spent his professional career in industrial engineering working for RCA, Collins Radio, and NCR (where he worked for twenty-six years).  He then taught adult studies at Zane State and spent twenty-seven enjoyable years substitute teaching for Shenandoah Schools.
Joe loved life, his family, and the outdoors.  He was an avid outdoorsman and hunter, hunting both local and big game.  He cherished a recent trip out West with his granddaughter, Renee.  He missed his hunting buddy and friend, Bob Page, often.  His impact on his family is as large as his personality and will be forever “savored”.
In addition to his parents, he is preceded in death by his stepfather, Michael Regan; a daughter, Renee Krall; and his grandparents, Anna and Steve Crevey.
He is survived by his wife, Diane (Gibson) Krall; his daughters, Shelly (Dan) Schwieterman of Pleasant City and Angie Krall of Myrtle Beach SC; his grandchildren, Braun Joseph (Mandy) Schwieterman of Cambridge, Caleb Krall (Rachel) Schwieterman of Bay Village, and Renee Diane Schwieterman of Cambridge; and his great-grandchild, Camden Krall Schwieterman.
