Obituary of Joel T. Prince
Webster: Unexpectedly on Friday, December 31, 2021, at age 41. Joel is survived by his loving wife of 9 years, Allison; beloved children, Ayden and Olivia; parents, Debbie and John Prince; brother, Eric (Megan Otis) Prince; father and mother-in-law, Jerry and Linda Tome; brother-in-law, Justin (Cathy) Tome; nieces and nephews, Lylah, Evie and Gage Prince, Jarrod and Dylan Tome; many aunts, uncles, cousins and friends.
Joel will be remembered as a dedicated husband and father. Growing up with many aunts, uncles, and cousins, he also shared a great love for spending time with extended family. He was a dedicated Phish fan and attended dozens of shows/festivals over the years with his closest friends. Although he did not always watch each game in its entirety, because doing so was too stressful for him at times and he felt he would jinx the team, he was also a lifelong fan of the Buffalo Bills.
Joel grew up in Henrietta with his parents and brother and graduated from Rush-Henrietta Central School District in 1998. He then went to St. John Fisher College, where he met many of his closest friends. He attained his Bachelor of Science degree in 2005 from Brockport College. Joel began working with Cintas immediately following college. He continued to make his way through different roles within the company, with his most recent role as Market Sales Manager.
His family will receive friends Thursday, January 6, 4-7pm at the funeral home (570 Kings Highway So.), where his celebration of life will be held Friday, January 7, 11:00 am. Masks will be required by the family. Interment Webster Union Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, donations may be directed to the Ayden and Olivia Prince Education Fund C/O Allison Prince 570 Kings Hwy S. Rochester, NY 14617. To share a memory or send the family a condolence, please visit www.harrisfuneralhome.com.

Allison,

You don't know me, but Joel was our contact guy for Cintas and their deliveries to my gym, World Gym Webster. I had no idea he passed away. I am so sorry. My wife passed away in 2017 at age 39, leaving me and my daughters, age 4 and age 7. Ironically, my youngest is named Allison. It sounds like you are suffering through the same and I am so sorry for what you're going through. I know this pain. I hope you find strength that you didn't know you had. That was my experience as time passed.
