Joe Long was more than a friend. He was the kind of person who made a difference in everyone's life. The JoeTop™, the first Legacy Steps™ Small Town Heroes Edition, was created to honor Joe's life and inspire others to carry on his legacy. Join the Joe Long Foundation and Faith Over CP on July 3, 2026, at The Endzone Bar & Grill in Mount Gilead, Ohio, as we celebrate a hometown hero and launch a movement that helps communities honor their own local heroes. Be Like Joe. Every Step Has A Story. 💜#BeLikeJoe #JoeLongFoundation #LegacySteps #SmallTownHeroes #FaithOverCP #JoeTop #LegacyHero #MountGileadOhio #RememberJoe #EveryStepHasAStory #HometownHero #CommunityStrong #LegacyLivesOn #InMemoryOfJoe #WearTheLegacy #HeroSeries #OhioEvents #FaithBasedCommunity #NormalcyMatters #AdaptiveFootwear
