Joel Martin Shoeneman, 70, of Roggen, Colorado, passed away peacefully at home, Tuesday, April 2nd, 2019.
Joel was born July 2nd, 1948 in Denver CO, to Martin and Magdalene (Klausner) Shoeneman. He graduated from Weld Central Highschool in 1966 and from Metropolitan State College in 1978 with a Bachelor Degree in Science. Joel went to California to work for the Parnelli Jones Company before returning to Roggen CO to run, then own The Shoeneman 5M Ranch. He was respected in his community for his exceptional Charolais herd gaining him recognition nationally and internationally. Joel had a passion for farming; he was very proud of his alfalfa, wheat, and corn. Joel was married to Linda Shoeneman but after they divorced he was very blessed to find loving companionship with Connie Cecil.
Every opportunity Joel had he was flying. If it was to check the crops, to go get a “$100 hamburger” or for any reason, he was in the air. Also, he loved to explore the country through camping, riding his motorcycle and all-terrain vehicles.
