Joseph "Joey" Lampkin

Joseph (Joey) Lampkin born December 11, 1955 passed unto his rest after a lifelong struggle with illness and hardships on August 22, 2026 at Baptist East Hospital.

He was known for his comical nature, and ability to get "under your skin". Joey was an enigma as a UK fan in a family of UL supporters. Joey never married and had a difficult life, but was loved by his family, who took care of him. His neighbors affectionately knew him as "The Can Man" since he collected cans in his grocery cart.

Joey leaves behind his sister, Cathy Krebs and a brother, Tommy Lampkin. He was preceded in death by his twin brother, Johnny Lampkin, and his 4 other brothers, Donnie, Danny, Stevie, and Freddy. Joey also leaves behind two Nephews, Michael Krebs, and Freddy Krebs, and a niece, Rubie Quinney; Great-Nieces, Kate Thompson and August Quinney; Great-Nephew, Jake Thomspon, as well as a host of loving family and friends to cherish his memory forever.
