Joy N. “Joe” Lindquist was born on September 18, 1927 in Omaha, NE to Helen and Carl Lindquist. He passed away at his home in Omaha on March 3, 2021 surrounded by his family. Joe was 93 years old.

Joe graduated from Omaha North High School in 1945 and went on to serve his country as a United States Marine. He attended Creighton University Law School and practiced law in Omaha until his retirement in 1999. He married Arlene Kastanek of Wilber, NE in 1959 and together they had two daughters, Linda and Susan.
