Joel, 18

We loved Joel more than words can describe. He was such a unique and wonderfully complex person, full of quirks and idiosyncrasies that made Joel Joel. From a very young child right through to a teenager Joel’s killer combination of humour and intelligence meant there was never a dull moment when he was around. All who knew Joel can agree that he was a brilliant conversationalist; insightful, quick-witted, and refreshingly honest. When Joel became passionate about something, be it cars, fashion or a strongly held opinion, he’d draw everyone in with his infectious enthusiasm. Joel’s unique perspective on the world kept everyone on their toes and the Joel-shaped hole can never be filled. We miss him every day.
