JOSEPH WAYNE SHADRICK DAIGLE 01.06.1972 – 11.07.2024 It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Joseph “Shad” Daigle, beloved father, fiancé, son, brother, brother-in-law, uncle, nephew, cousin, and friend, who left this world on November 7th, 2024, at the age of 52. Joseph's spirit was a radiant light in the lives of those who knew him, a kind soul whose infectious laughter and warmth touched countless hearts. Joseph enjoyed many unique occupations such as being a bartender in different restaurants and bars in Fresno and Clovis. He was employed as an Information Technologist Specialist, by both Fresno and Madera Counties. Lastly, he was the business owner of AITexam.com, a practice testing website for both state and national Licensed Nursing Home Administrator exams. He was born on January 6, 1972, to Wayne and Geri Daigle at NAS Quonset Point, Rhode Island. In 1995 Geri married David Morris and Joseph became David’s stepson. Joseph and David loved to talk about their fishing adventures. As fishing anglers, they could tell some pretty tall tales! Joseph was the proud father of two beautiful daughters, Mazzy and Mia, whom he adored with all his heart. He dedicated his life to fostering their dreams and aspirations, striving always to provide them with the best opportunities and unconditional love. He reveled in their laughter and cherished every moment with them, creating memories that will forever live on in their hearts. He was a loving brother and brother-in-law to Luis and Emily Venegas and Nathan Morris. Joseph shared a close and supportive bond with them, filled with playful banter, love, and understanding. As an uncle, he showered his nieces and nephews—Anthony, Mila, Elaina, and Ramon—with affection and joy. His playful spirit and engaging stories inspired many moments of laughter and creativity. Joseph leaves his fiancé, Linda Caudillo, with many happy fond memories together. He loved to tease her with his practical jokes and shenanigans. Although their time together may have been short, they treasured every moment they spent with one another. A dreamer at heart, Joseph was innovative and intelligent, with a curious mind that thrived on exploration and knowledge. He had a deep love for animals, and his compassion extended not only to his family but also to the furry friends who shared in his life. His love for YouTube videos and Pod Casts was a testament to his desire to learn, entertain, and connect with others, spending hours immersed in content that brought him joy. Joseph's legacy will be one of kindness, laughter, and the unwavering love he gave to his daughters and family. He had a unique ability to bring smiles to others' faces, leaving behind a profound impact on everyone who crossed his path. Though his too-short life has ended, the love he shared and the joy he spread will echo on in our hearts forever. Rest in peace, dear Joseph. You will be deeply missed but never forgotten. Your light continues to shine in the lives of your daughters, family and all who loved you. In Life, Joseph gave his Love to his family and friends. In Death, as a donor, he gave the Gift of Sight to a stranger.
