Joseph Figgins

Joseph Fletcher Figgins passed away peacefully at his home on Wednesday August 20, 2025 surrounded by his family. He was born in Walla Walla, Washington on June 25, 1953, to Joe and Lilly Figgins, the oldest of five children.

Joe attended Bonners Ferry High school and continued his education in agriculture at Green River College. After college, he partnered with Brad Studer for two years at the Hop Farm and then returned to working alongside his father on the family farm.

On July 8, 1978, Joe married the love of his life, Carrie Poulton. Together, they built a life full of love, laughter, and hard work. After Joe’s father retired, he and Carrie took over the family farm, where they raised two children, Lynsie and Josh. Joe continued farming with his son Josh until his passing. Farming was not only his livelihood but also his passion, and he cherished the opportunity to share it with his children.

Joe will be remembered as a devoted husband, father, papa, brother and friend. He was deeply loved and will be missed by all who knew him.

He is proceeded in death by his parents, Joe and Lilly Figgins; his brother, Pete Figgins; and his granddaughter Ellie Faith Figgins. He is survived by his wife, Carrie Figgins; daughter Lynsie (Matthew) Odd; son Josh (Rachel) Figgins; grandchildren Devon (Olivia) Tripp, Kellen Odd, Brennen Odd, Kinley Jo Figgins and Emberlynn Figgins; and many extended family members and friends.
