Ninive “Joe” Eshu

May 21, 1936 — May 22, 2023

Ninive Joseph Eshu, better known as Joe, Dad, Uncle Joe, Grandpa Joe and Pops reunited with God at the age of 87 on May 22, 2023 in Los Angeles, California. Joe was born on May 21, 1936, in Basrah, Iraq to parents Yousif and Lydia Hallaby.

As great of pain it is to not have him with us on earth, we find comfort in knowing he lived his life to the fullest and is now our angel in heaven.

Now, we celebrate him and the incredible impact he had on the lives of everyone he encountered . He served as a father figure, grandparent to our children, a supportive friend and an unparalleled boss.

We cherish the memories he shared with us and the memories he made with us.

”If Love could have saved you, you would have lived Forever.”
