Brother Joe has always been a friend to the friend less. His friends are legion. In the heyday of his minis try it was nothing unusual for a delegation from many miles away to pop up in his congregation on a Sunday morning. With a cheery voice and a good story, he has always been the physician's best medicine in Me of illness. He has also been described as the man with the golden heart. On many occasions he has beenknown to divide his meager salary with some poor destitute family without calling on public charity.
He has often been called an apostle of good will. Although a Methodist preacher, wherever he went he was a community builder. Sectarianism was not for him. He has always been in great demand as a speaker on special occasions. Civic clubs, fraternal organiza tions and family reunions in North Carolina have no doubt seen and heard more of Joe Hiatt than any other man.
