Many fond memories of meals with foodie Joel and guided tours by docent Joel! Thinking of you today Kati, Courtney, Bob and Grace, and Chris.

I remember a lovely lamb dinner, a glass of wine, garden discussions and smiles. Miss him too.

Dear Kati, Chris, Courtney. Bob, and Grace,
Today I will have all of you in my heart and prayers. I will remember the visits to the farm in Minnesota with the wonderful shared meals and stories as well as the special occasion visits to Grand Rapids. It was a joy to know Joel. With sadness I say my good bye to dear Joel and I hug you from a distance dear cousin Kati.

I enjoyed many conversations and hearing of his many endeavors. After reading the attached article, it is obvious there were many more. He certainly was a very special man! Kati, I am so sorry for your loss.

Kati, I am so sorry and sad to read you lost Joel. I will miss his cheerfulness and smile most of all.

Farewell to the consummate chef and docent. Joel will be missed. We are thinking of and praying for all of you.

Dearest Kati and family, I'm so saddened to read of your loss of your beloved Joel. Sending you love and prayers for peace and comfort during this most painful time. with sympathy, Susan Wittenbach
