Joel Castle Obituary

KEENE – Joel K. Castle, 68, a resident of Keene and Jaffrey, New Hampshire, passed away on Saturday, July 23, 2016 at Cheshire Medical Center in Keene. He was born on April 3, 1948 in Keene; the son of Ona (Knight) Ruchti and the late Warren H. Castle.

Joel was an outdoors enthusiast. His love of fishing, hunting, and simply being outside was cultivated by his involvement in the Boy Scouts. Seasonally, he enjoyed riding his three-wheeler and snowmobiling. He shared his musical talent through playing guitar. He was an avid reader of books related to mechanics and electronics and used his knowledge gained from those books to repair household items and automobiles.

Survivors include his mother, Ona Ruchti of Bradford, New Hampshire; two daughters, Angela Turmel and her husband, James, of Hudson, New Hampshire, and Melony Castle of Lakewood, Colorado; a sister, Elyce Reny, of Bradford, New Hampshire; two grandchildren, Jordan and Makayla Castle; as well as many nieces, nephews, and cousins.

He is predeceased by a son, Joel Castle, Jr., and a brother, Chuck Castle.

Calling hours will be held Monday, August 1, 2016 from 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. at Fletcher Funeral Home, 33 Marlboro Street, Keene, New Hampshire. Burial will be at a later date.
