Dear Karen and Family, Joel was such a special person. We shared a common thread in our lives, being a proud father. Growing with our children on the sidelines at sporting events, Joel would continuosly give me updates on Hayden and Kailli. When describing their activities his favorite words were "they love it". Karen, don't feel left out, Joel was always telling me how your running the show at work. In short, Joel was proud of his family and let people know it. I consider myself fortunate to have our lives intersect and share those small moments about our families. Have comfort in knowing Joel will always be looking down watching over your family, drinking that large ice coffee cheering you on! God Bless, Sincerely, The Toronto Family
