Wipff, III, known as Joseph or “J.” is an Elder at Salem Reformed Baptist Church.
Joseph was born and raised in Texas. He was born in Fredericksburg but grew up in a number of places in South Texas, near the Rio Grande River. Growing up he spent many summers with his grandparents on their farm outside of Fredericksburg. His father was a rancher but worked for a number of years in county law enforcement, then a Texas Game Warden and finally back to ranching on the family cattle ranch (est. 1882) in South Texas. In middle school he moved to Del Rio and grew up working on the family cattle ranch until the early 1980’s.
After High School he acquired a Bachelor of Science (B.S.) in Natural Resource Management (Rangelands) at Texas Tech University, a Masters of Science (M.S.) in Plant Systematics and Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in Plant Biosystematics at Texas A&M University.
Like Gustavo, Joseph loves Scripture, Reformed Theology, and a very strong cup of coffee.
Joseph and Annette have six children and eight grandchildren. | more | less
