Obituary

Joseph Randolph Bouldin Jr., affectionately known as "Brother" or "J.R.", transitioned from this life on February 9th, 2026. His journey began on May 26, 1960, in Baltimore, Maryland, and he was born to the late Joseph Randolph Bouldin Sr. and Mattie Pearl Cook.

He received his education from Westover High School in Albany, Georgia, and enlisted in the U.S. Army in 1979. After faithfully serving his country, Joseph met Vanessa, the mother of his children, moved to Virginia, and began his lifelong career as a truck driver. Joseph resided in Virginia until his passing.

Joseph's legacy will be carried on through his six loving children: Michael Long, Maurice Long, Matthew Long, Sarah Jasmine Marie Bouldin, Joseph Randolph Bouldin III (Trey), and Leila Jovan Bouldin; and six grandchildren: Mekhi Long, Henry Howard, Curt "CJ" Simms III, Matais Bouldin-Vela, Lennox Bouldin-Vela, and Xander Bouldin.

He is also survived by his loving sisters: Jacqueline Bouldin Griffin, Clarise Bouldin Googer (Tyrone), and Valerie Stone (Joseph); devoted brothers: Howard Dewayne Bouldin III (Jackqueline) and Ronald Eugene Bouldin (Elizabeth); as well as nieces, nephews, a host of other loving relatives, and dear friends.

Although he is no longer here in physical form, his spirit will live on forever. His life was a testament to strength, kindness, and unwavering love for his family and friends. He carried himself with quiet dignity and a generous heart, always willing to lend a helping hand or share a word of encouragement.
