Joel's memory is a blessing to me. He lives on in my heart.  Rest in peace dear Joel. 

I was overcome with grief when I heard about my cousin’s death. Joel, you were moving to a new home to accommodate your soon-to-be-born son, Mordekhai. I send my condolences and sympathies to family, friends, and patients who mourn the empty space on Earth you occupied. I will miss you, my dear cousin. 

Some truth in life are so hard to accept!
Dr. Passick your wings were ready but our hearts were not. 
As a nurse I was fortunate to work with Dr. Passick both in the inpatient units and in Primary Care. Our team was  one of the first PACT team. I will always keep good memories of your unmatched dedication, your strong work ethics and respect for others. I would like to thank Dr. Passick again the last time for being one of the best provider , coworker, team member at the West Palm Beach VA. 
May God grant you  sure Peace in His place.
My condolences to the family , friends, colleagues.

It is  a big loss .Miss you joe for ever .
 

I worked with Dr. Passick years ago and am saddened to hear of his passing. Dr. Passick will be remembered as a devoted doctor and one of the kindest and ethical human Beings I’ve known. He will be missed by many. 

I am deeply saddened by the passing of Joel. we first met in medical school in Albany over 35 years ago. He was such a gut neshama and my heart breaks. I am truly happy thatDivine Providence allowed myself and my cousin David and my son Daniel reconnected with him a few years back in Rabbi Ezagui's shul , Joel was a true lamed vavnik.

I am incredibly saddened to hear of this tragedy. He was a very sweet guy. I was blessed to get to know his mom  also before she passed away.

May  Joel s memory be  for blessing

My condolences on the passing of Dr. Joel Passick.  He was  a  great  physician and colleague at the West Palm Beach VAMC. 

I had the privilege of meeting Joel many years ago in Tzfat at a Shabbat with Livnot U'Lehibanot. With his usual big smile, he joined our group of 20 somethings, sang, schmuzed and added his light to the gathering. 
It was always good to have Joel join us as he returned to Tzfat. He cared about the next generation of young Jews and his generosity helped many experience wonderful things in Tzfat. He was part of connecting them to their Jewish soul.
May his soul's light continue to shine on all of us and brighten our world.
Sincerely, Meir Paltiel

I am so very sorry to hear of Joel's passing. So shocking and incredibly sad.  I knew his Mom Sylvia, who was my Mother, Charlotte's best friend, and his Dad Marvin, who was my Dad Nathan's best friend. Joel was always there for my Mom. May his memory be a blessing to all who knew him.

Dr. Passick was an excellent Physician who often went above and beyond the call of duty when it came to taking care of the Veterans at the VA.  He will be missed sorely.  My prayers of comfort and peace are extended to the family during this most difficult time.  Blessings🙏🏽

Joel was the kindest and gentlest of souls. Never had a bad word to say of anyone and always ready to help.  Joel you will truly, truly be missed. We love you 💕
Rest in peace my friend

Gone too soon
A dedicated  physician who gave 110% to every patient 
Many many memories of you standing at the bedside listening to your patient then crouched over a computer meticulously addressing every single issue
You will be missed but not forgotten
Rest in heavenly peace
The Lord is my shepherd, I shall lack nothing.
He lays me down in green pastures; He leads me beside still waters.
He revives my soul; He directs me in paths of righteousness for the sake of His Name.
Though I walk in the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff-they will comfort me.
You will prepare a table for me before my enemies; You have anointed my head with oil; my cup is full.
Only goodness and kindness shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the House of the Lord forever and ever.


I am very sad to lose such as wonderful , caring, professional Physician at our facility here in West Palm Beach. Dr. Passick  will be missed dearly as a friend, coworker, professional and as a  light of hope and kindness. 

Dr Passick was dedicated and compassionate to his veterans, their families and his fellow staff at VAWPB.  My deepest sympathy to his family. His legacy of outstanding care will be with us always.  

I first met Dr Passick over 23 years ago . He was working in MICU.   Always a smile and caring person.   I will miss seeing his smile. My prayers and love  to his family.

I am deeply saddened to hear of your loved ones passing. Dr. Passick always had a smile and his kindness shined everywhere he went. We served on the LSDTI team together and I observed him as a strong advocate for training professionals how to have the difficult discussions with their patients. As a Veteran myself, I thank him for his dedication to serving our Veterans for 25 years with utmost respect and excellence.  Many prayers - Chaplain Kim House

Dr Passick will surely be missed.  I could call a MOD consult and he would respond in a timely manner. He would take time out to explain his findings and recommendations. No Task was to small or too big for him to respond to. He was a true professional.
may his soul rest in peace.

To the Passick Family:  My deepest condolences on the untimely passing of Joel.  I knew him from his time in medical training at Brookdale Hospital in Brooklyn and continued to periodically speak with him while he was working at the VA here in Florida. 
     He was a fine, dedicated physician and a caring human being. Our profession is lessened by his passing.
     May you all take comfort from the fine memories he leaves behind. My thoughts are with you.

If ever there was a gentleman Dr.Passick  represented a true gentleman always well mannered kind and accommodating  I can hear the echo of his voice saying  “my pleasure ‘ which was always said in response to a  Thank You , ,given  to him for always  going the extra mile or agreeing to do a task  no one else would do..  My greatest condolences to his family  .                           Dr. Passick you are  gone but never forgottenYou will always be remembered by your family at the West Palm Beach VA hospital.      Rest. In Peace my brother.!!

I was saddened to hear of Joel’s passing.  I had the privilege of working with Joel at the West Palm Beach VAMC.  

He was meticulous in his attention to details of his patients care, a dedicated physician.

He was a  devoutly religious man. 

More importantly, he was a very good man, a real Mensch.

My condolences go out to his many friends and family.

I only started working at West Palm Beach VA since January 2015 but it was a great privilege to have worked with you, Dr. Passick. You are one outstanding doctor who always took  extra time for your  patients, would stay until 6 in the morning when you should have left many hours before that. You would call and follow up on your patients and would come and see them to find out how they were. You always had a big smile for everyone. February 26 was the day we held a baby shower for you for the upcoming birth of your child and you were so pleased and happy for all the gifts we gave you and for the well wishes you got. Who would have thought that it was going to be the last time that we would see you? May you Rest In Peace and know that we will be praying for you and we will always remember you. Thank you for everything.

Dr. Passick was one of the most thorough, compassionate and dedicated physicians that I ever worked with. I am saddened by his sudden death. My condolences  to the family. Dr. Passick! You will be missed. May you Rest in Peace.

He was very kind, warm hearted,. compassionate, never let those he interacted with feels less than... He was a dedicated physician, very meticulous  about the care he provide for his patients. Great coworker and person R.I.P Joel Passick you will be missed 😭

Words cannot express my extreme devastated  sadness  when I was surprised to learn  the untimely death of my friend.  He expired way too early when he was full of life.  There is nobody I have met in my entire life who was  so well intentioned and good-willed  than Dr. Joel Passick.  He never had a hateful or spiteful bone in his body.  I have known Joel as a fellow physician for over 20 years.   Joel was always kind, refreshing, so good hearted, and most of all the most compassionate and caring  physician I know.   He was the most thorough physician, covered every small detail with his patients that most would not do or overlook.  He did this because he wanted to.   He sacrificed his own personal life  staying  several hours beyond his shift ended to perform the best care he knew how to patients he was caring.   He did all this while strictly adhering to the Jewish traditions that is hard to do nowadays in this digital world,   I appreciate the  nights of the sabbath, he came to the ER where I was working to do the kiddish with me, always reminding me of my Jewish upbringing.  He was full of life, well traveled, highly educated, while striving to learn more.  Now he has a baby son soon to be born next month.  I’m hoping one day his son will read this message as well as others.   I want him to know there is no better man and father in the world he could have.  While he is no longer living, he is still alive in spirit, and you will have large shoes to fill in place of your father.   Joel, if your son is reading this at some time in the future, I want him to know he can contact me anytime, so that I can share the many pleasant memories I have of you.  Shalom Joel.  You will be missed.   Darren Levy 

I wish to express my deepest and sincere condolences to the family of Dr.  Passick.   I worked with Dr. Passick for many years at the West Palm Beach VA,  he was always kind and friendly.     Anyone that  met Dr. Passick knew that he cared very much about his patients, people and his faith.    In Dr. Passick you saw the light in the actions that he did not just the words that he spoke, he will be  missed by the many of us who knew  and worked with him.   May you rest in peace Dr. Passick 

I was truly shocked and saddened by the news of Dr. Joel Passick’s passing.
Worked with Joel for years in West Palm VA Medical Center as hospitalist , I found Joel  was a great and exceptional person. He was a conscientious, compassionated and dedicated physician who always took time to listen and checked on the  patients 
whenever  he was being called by nursing staff. He always delivered high standard of care to his patients.
He will be missed.

It was with great sadness when learning of Dr. Passick’s passing.  He was always a kind, thorough and respectful physician and I always felt confident when he was the physician overseeing the patients assigned to me.  While I have not worked directly with him for some time, he always greeted me with a warm smile when crossing paths at the hospital.  He will be greatly missed.  My prayers and deepest sympathy to his family. God Bless.

Dr. Passick cared for my husband on his many stays at VA WPB. He really, deeply cared and was always available to answer my questions and concerns. My husband and Joel also connected through Chabad. May you Rest In Peace. I’m sure my husband will greet you with open arms and it will now be his honor to care for you. 

Worked with Joel for years and found him to be an exceptional person who always tried to improve our working conditions at the VA. He was always willing to help others with their work. It is sad that this tragedy happened when he had so much to look forward to. He will be missed 

I had the privilege of working with Dr. Passick at the VA. He was so kind and considerate. He was very dedicated to his patients. Sending prayers for his family and friends.

My deepest condolences to the family of Dr. Passick. He was a kind and gentle soul. Rest in paradise, Dr. Passick. Heaven gained another angel. 

Dr. Passick, a very nice, kind,  and compassionate person.  He is  a very dedicated  physician, he cares the veterans and take his time to listen them. He always "SMILE"  and greet us whenever we encountered him at hallway or nursing station. He will  deeply missed. It too sad for  us  for his  sudden  death. 
Dr. Passick your Gone from our Sight, But never from our Hearts.

It was a privelege and great honor to have worked along side one of the most caring, gentle, sweet and compassionate doctor I have ever met in my professional career. He always had a smile on his face even on the toughest days of work. He was so committed to his profession that he was always ready to help even when it is not his patient. He was always ready to go above and beyond. 
He was so excited about the upcoming birth of his son. It is so sad and unfortunate that his son will never have the chance to meet his father.  I am quite sure he would have been a wonderful father. 
You will be dearly missed Dr. Passick and we know you are in a better place. May you Rest in Peace.

I had the privilege of working with Dr. Passick directly and indirectly for more than twenty years. He always listened to his patients and was empathetic and sympathetic to their needs. My deepest sympathy and prayers go to his family.

I will miss him very much.
May his memory always be for a blessing.

We in the off tour in Acute Care have the privilege to work with Dr. Passick.  He's very engaged and very nice to all of us.

Life is the greatest gift that God has given us.  Death is only a bridge towards eternal life with God.  Certainly, heaven is rejoicing for another hospitalist soul has finally reached his true home.

May you rest in peace, Dr. Passick and for sure we will be missing you.

Dr. Passick was such a kind soul.  I always think of him as one step away from being an angel.  You are going to be missed very much.  Love and support to his family.  Dr. Passick was a true gem.  

Working with Dr. Passick and knowing him was a blessing.  He was so patient and kind and taught me so much about dedication- his staying late and coming to work on a scheduled day off or coming in early to learn something new.  I was so excited for him to welcome his new son into this world and hear his stories about his plans. My heart breaks as I know he would have been the best father. I am grateful to have known Dr. Passick and I will miss his kindness, warmth and his smile. I hope his family knows how much he was loved by all who worked with him and what a great doctor he was. 

I had the privilege of knowing and working with Dr Passick back in the early days of this VA. Not only was Dr Passick an excellent doctor, but he was a kind and compassionate doctor.  He is a great loss to the VA and will be sorely missed by all. 

The VA community and Veteran patients lost something very special with the passing of Dr. Passick. My heart goes out to his family and his faith community. Joel exemplified to those of us with whom he worked the highest personal, professional and ethical standards, and was never too busy to show kindness. 

Please accept our deepest condolences on the passing  of a great Colleague Dr. Joel Passick. I worked with Dr Passick on the Hospitalist Team at West Palm Beach VA. He was a great mentor,  an excellent physician who embodies the ICARE values at the VA in the delivery of care to our veterans. We will miss the kindness, professionalism  and the gentle way he conducted healthcare and touched our lives. 
 

This is a physician whose reputation precedes him.  Although I never worked directly with Dr. Passick, those who did held him in the highest regard.  He clearly impacted others with the force of his impressive character.

Dr. Passick was a kind and generous man. After I mentioned in passing I wanted to try eating less meat, he was so kind to bring meals from his personal meal delivery service for me to try. If we had time to chat we would and he always had such kind and positive things to say. He was truly dedicated to helping as many patients as possible with the time he was given. I think of his kindness often and am deeply saddened as many are. He is truly missed, but left behind the most beautiful lesson of being kind and trying to help as much as possible when he was needed by so many. Thank you for being awesome Dr. Passick <3

I worked with Dr. Passick and he was a great doctor.  All his patients loved him.  He was a very nice man.

I am so sorry for your loss. I had the pleasure of working with Dr. Passick several years ago when I would cover the medical unit. He was a great doctor and will be missed by many.

Dr. Passick was a nice and kind man. I will miss seeing him and sharing simple gestures.

I was shocked and deeply saddened by the news of Dr.Joel Passick's
passing.  Dr.Passick was one of the nicest doctor, always had a smile on his face.  He was very polite, professional and a compassionate doctor, always willing to take extra tasks.  As Chief of Medicine I worked very closely with DrPassick and would like to thank him for the excellent service he provided to our Veterans.  I will truly miss this Hero.

Our sincere prayers for Joel. He was very dedicated and profoundly compassionate person. He touched many lives , that included his patients and colleagues in many different ways , with everlasting impression of grace and kindness. He always valued truth and honesty in every act of his performance and held everyone to high standards. We will miss him. May his soul Rest In Peace 🙏

I met Joel in 2007 when I started working for the West Palm Beach VA Medical Center.  We shared many shifts together as hospitalists. We shared the hard days of work when you think the shift would never end and the stress level was high. Through those moments is when you create a sense camaraderie and family that is difficult to describe.  Joel was a caring, hardworking colleague with a big heart. We will miss him dearly but we know he is with God now.
Rest In Peace my friend. 

I had the privilege of knowing Dr. Passick professionally for 25 years at the VA Medical Center.  He was a bright man who was highly ethical and dedicated to the care of the veterans and one of the best professionals at this facility.  I'm deeply saddened to hear about this great loss.

Joel was such a sweet, gentle soul.  I loved his laughter.  He was a friend and co-worker.  He also was very compassionate and saw me in the Emergency Dept. on evening as a patient and was as concerned for me as if I had been his brother I believe.  This is very sad.  I will miss him very much.

I've had the priveledge of working with Dr Passick for many years.  He always had a good heart and cared for the patients very much.  He was a hard worker and would stay past his shift to make sure his work was done. 
He was so happy awaiting the birth of his son.  There's been such a heaviness at work knowing he's gone.  
I know God welcomed him with open arms.  May he have eternal rest.  God Bless
