Joseph (Joe, Joker, Boppa) Cocking born March 5, 1961 of Oak Creek, WI passed away Monday, September 11, 2017. He tragically passed away while doing what he loved - enjoying a ride on his motorcycle. Joe was a husband of 37 years to the love of his life, Nancy. He was a father, and with Nancy, they raised three children, Lori (Andrew) Highby, Elizabeth (Anthony) Sparks, and John Cocking. He was a loving grandfather (Boppa) to his only grandchild, Alexia. Joe lived a life of happiness, love, and fun. He enjoyed the traveling his career at Modine Manufacturing in Sturtevant, WI brought him. Besides his love of everything Harley, he had a passion for hockey. He shared his love of the sport over the years with not only family, but with people that called him Coach Joe. He coached in Illinois, and Wisconsin, most recently with the Marquette Golden Eagles. Joseph is preceded in death by his parents, his older brother Thomas Cocking and his nephew Joshua Cocking. A celebration in honor of his life (he always said he wanted people to party when he passed away) will be held on Saturday, September 16th, 2017 from 1 pm to 7 pm.
