Joel,
You were like having an older brother while growing up. I can remember you teaching me how to ski and drive. I remember the fun we had going to Marriotts Great America several times and riding the roller coaster all day long. We also had fun playing different board games and Atari while it was raining outside. Your Mom always made us delicious snacks too! We were also very good at spending our quarters playing video games like pac-man and Asteroids for hours. We would buy bags full of candy to help pass the time while working as ticket checkers at Boreal Ski Ridge. You are missed and thought of often. I admired your positive attitude and enjoyed your up beat e-mails during your illness. Thank you for being a great neighbor to grow up with. I have many fun memories that I will think of often. I Miss you, ?Shelly

"Marco - Polo, Marco - Polo". The hours you spent swimming and playing with Andy. The food we so loved to eat - #4!! So many memories that will never fade away. You were so brave, positive, and a wonderful friend and son.
You are loved and missed.
Love, Dianne
