Joseph was the perfect example, or role model, for any father and head of family. He was a pious and holy man. He worked hard as a carpenter to support Mary and Jesus. When he learned that Mary was pregnant and the child was not his, he could have walked away. However, he took Mary as his wife and raised Jesus as his own. He was completely devoted to his family.
