Joel and I attended UW together and we both lived in Hawaii at the same time and we had a lot of great times together. I am so sorry and my thoughts and condolences go out to the family.

I came here because I thought of him just now. Joel was a kind, thoughtful, smart and motivated professional that I had the privilege of working with over the years. He was also a beautiful skier -- I used to love to watching him gracefully glide across the slopes. We sure do miss you, Joel.

May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind always be at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
and rains fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.

Joel was one of my all time favorite people on the planet. A dear friend, colleague and confident during the decade we shared working together at A&E and for years beyond. My warmest thoughts go out to his family and to everyone who knew Joel.

I am very sad and sorry for this tremendous loss. I looked up to him as a mentor and true friend. We shared many of pints and one from his great balcony. He gave me great advice on interviewing and we shared a similar career path. I am so sorry to learn of his passing but I know that God takes the good ones so it must have been his time.

Joel and I spent hours and hours in conversations over the years. Long phone calls and never a harsh word. The world needs more people with Joel's demeanor, style and positive attitude. Sadly, instead, we have one less such person.

I worked with Joel at TNS several years ago. He was always smiling, and kind to everyone. I'm glad to know he's no longer in pain, but I am sad to know that the world is now missing him. He was such a great guy to work with, I can still hear his infectious laugh. Thinking about his family during this time.

There are no words. The sadness is overwhelming. Joel had another family who loved him dearly from his time at Turner Broadcasting. May Joel rest in peace - as he deserves nothing less. I will pray for all of his family and friends to have strength, understanding and healing. God Bless you all.
