Joe Howe, a man experiencing homelessness, is pictured while he was still alive in Salt Lake City in early summer 2022.Based on the few records available about his life, Joe Howe was 39 years old when he died.

Based on public records, it appears Howe was born on April 17, 1983, and he died June 18, 2022.

Pendergrast said Howe also talked about living in Ohio before coming to Utah.
