Mary Jane was the love of Joe's life. They married January 30, 2015 and they were the apples of one another's eye. He enjoyed garage ''sailing'', boating, fishing, and gardening. Mr. Pinkston was a very kind man always willing to help anyone. Zack and Zody, Joe's cats, will miss him dearly. He was a member of the Elks Lodge 1714, Northeast Lakeside Fire Department Auxiliary, Chicago Painters and Decorators Union, and St. Peter the Fisherman Catholic Church. Mr. Pinkston relocated to Mountain Home after his retirement in Chicago. Joe will be dearly missed as he was deeply loved by many.

We only met Joe and Mary Jane once when they came to visit Will and Lana but learned to know him better through conversations with Will and Lana. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family during this difficult time.
