Like everyone who knew him, I held Joe Wiseman in highest regard. Kind, considerate, compassionate, and joyful, he was a pleasure to be around. When he hired me to teach at League City Intermediate, I was grateful and fortunate to have him as a Principal. He helped me understand the postitive influence we could have on our students by our example, by our high expectations, and by our understanding when things went wrong. It’s hard to imagine the number of lives blessed by an association with Joe. My sincere condolences go out to sweet Pam and Holly. Such a man leaves a big missing, but we are all better people for knowing him.
Joe was an amazing person loved by all. He was the best husband, father, grandfather, teacher , principal and educator. Everyone in this area thought very highly of Joe. His smile and kindness was always welcomed . It was a blessing to know Joe and he will be greatly missed. He left a special mark on all of us that knew and loved him. Heaven has gained a special angel.

My husband Roy and I met Joe when he joined CCISD. We were from Gladewater, Texas, and our families had purchased furniture from Joe’s relative there. We followed Joe’s versatility in serving the school district’s needs. He has left very successful tracks.
So sorry to hear Joe passed on. He was a kind man who loved his wife Pam and his daughter and grandchildren. He was so well thought of by Clear Creek ISD.
He will be greatly missed.
