Joel Levenson Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Hodroff-Epstein Memorial Chapel - St. Paul on Jan. 4, 2026.
Joel Levenson

Age 72 of St. Paul, passed away on January 4, 2026. Preceded in death by his parents Sonia and Irving Levenson. Survived by his cousins as well as his sister, Jennifer Levenson, and brother-in-law, Patrick Ludden.

Joel leaves behind a small family but a massive community of neighbors, co-workers, and lifelong friends who will all miss him fiercely. His kindness, loyalty, and attention to the little things were second to none. Unfortunately, there will now be one less TV viewer of Minnesota pro and college sports games, and many more unclaimed golf balls in the bushes at the Highland Park golf course near Joel's home. A testament to the contribution Joel made on a daily basis is his upcoming induction into the St. Patrick's Guild Hall of Fame, his employer for many years until his death.

Graveside services will be held 1:00 Monday, January 5 at Sons of Abraham Cemetery in St. Paul. Shiva will be held 7:00 Monday at Temple of Aaron Synagogue, also in St. Paul.
