Sean3 Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 For fans of The Dr. Joe Show, I came across a comment in the Discussion section of his Youtube channel dated 3 months ago. The comment stated that Dr. Joe has indeed passed away. I cannot confirm this, but the person whom posted the comment claims that the source for this is a friend of Joe's, and also a man named Bill...from Joe's preferred vendor. Again, I cannot confirm any of this, and the news of his passing is based solely on this comment. If anyone can add to this or confirm the news...feel free. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnS Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 If confirmed, then it's very sad news. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

irratebass Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 Sadly I have to believe this, think about it......the man would do extensive research on his sticks, he pretty much devoted his life to cigars, I can't believe he would just up and quit with no explanation & no sighting? NOTHING? C'mon!People knew him from somewhere, he had to have friends.....you don't just fall off the face of the earth with no sound.......i just don't buy it.Another thing, his brother posted and gave us an update when he was very ill.......shame on him for not following up with us on his condition, I know I'm being a whiny *****, but dammit I learned so much from "Dr. Joe" R. I. P. Brother, and thank you for everything. *I'm very good looking, and great with rice.* 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JR Kipling Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 I had heard that Joe had to give up cigars because of sinus or other related issues. But again, this was just an Internet forum rumor & not confirmed. I never saw a video by Joe saying this.I greatly enjoyed all Dr Joe’s videos. I appreciate the time, effort, and passion he put into them. After watching them I always hoped the guy would find another cigar related job that he loved as much as his time in a N.Y. cigar shop.

JR Kipling Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 I was into cigars before Joe, but he was the biggest online contributor to my interest (leading to buying & smoking them) in Cuban cigars.

Mattygukas Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 Truly sad if true. I love Dr Joe and always cracked up watching him have an apoplexy when he would open a box of Cubans. I hope it is false but if not I hope his brother posts a follow-up. RIP but hopefully it’s not needed.

clutch5150 Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 Very sad news if true for sure. He was VERY passionate about CC's and I always wondered what happened to him. Always loved his boxes and boxes of CC's in the background of his man cave. He will be missed! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's about a 25 min video. Can you tell us what the time on the video is when he alludes to it, please? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed, it was his videos that led me to procuring CC's online, and ultimately to FoH. Much too young to have passed if true. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCgarman Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 I googled his name, there appears to be little or no info on him, no social media. He obviously had family and friends who know the deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beyond this, verifiable info is hard to come by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kalibratecuba Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 I did a somewhat deep search online back in 2015. The registered owner of his website is the best lead for news, but who wants to do that? He is missed and for me that is enough.Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
