  1. Bronxville NYDear Jane,

    Please accept our condolences on the loss of your son, Joel. We didn’t know Joel, but we have grown children of our own, and we can’t imagine the pain that must accompany losing one who has held such a place in your heart as Joel did.

    We hope that the support of family and friends gives you comfort in these earliest days and that soon your fond memories will displace the deepest sadness.

    Love to you,

    Alice and Mike Olson

  2. Skjei family,
    sorry to hear about Joey. I had not seen him for many years.As a parent I believe one of the worlds greatest tragedies is the loss of a child. I wish you many great memories in the years to come. My thoughts and prayers are with you. I know Joey is in good conpany, probably playing cards with Gramps(Russ) or telling a bunch of kids stories.
