Condolences from Earl Nelson, grandson of Caroline Nelson, sister to his mother, and fraternity brother to Hal Labelle Jr.

Sorry For You Loss. Just a memory....My dad (Homer E. Adams) was on the same mission with Joel. Both tenors. Funny story, I don't know if you know this or not. They made up goofy mixed up names from their last names. Joel's was "Fin -Stutter- Poo" "Gil-Lisp-Pee. That was one of the dinner time stories we were told. I'm sure you have your own (and many) stories of them singing. Amazing voices.
