Joel was a very special man. I always looked forward to our golf games together, especially our annual trips to Saranac Lake. I have many photos from Joel over the years we went up to the lake. They are hanging in my home and they always remind me of Joel. I will miss his quirky sense of humor and his friendship. I know God will bless him. May he Rest in Peace.  

Hit ‘em long and straight, Joel.

Dear Gina:

Although I have not seen you or Joel in a long time, I was very sorry to hear of his passing.

I always thought of Joel as having a rare combination  of intelligence, and down to earth honesty and forthrightness balanced with sensitivity. 

I will always think of him as a friend who Eva and I were fortunate to have had.

I extend my deepest sympathy to you.

Love 
Paul


Dear Gena:
Sadly we stopped seeing each other when we moved to Florida 3 1/2 years ago.  The 4 of us would get together regularly and have such pleasant evenings together.  I have such fond memories of Joel as he was always complimenting me.  It makes me so sad to think I will never see him again.  I am thankful for the good times we all had together.

Love 
Eva


Joanne and I were so very sorry to learn of Joel’s passing.  He was a wonderful friend to me for over 65 years and I could write a book on our adventures together.  Joanne and I looked forward to reconnecting with Joel and Gena every summer in New Jersey and he will be sorely missed by both of us. RIP, my dear friend. 

We love you so much Pop Pop. You will be missed dearly. Love xo the gerard girls
