Knowing Joel was a pleasure. It´s hard for me to measure. He always had a funny story or poem, It was hard for me not to give out a moan. Depend on Joel as a good friend, You knew it would never end. But so it did! Rest in peace,forever,love. Renee Silver.

I guess they thought starving your children would mean they reached a higher plane when it was finally time to eat...
