What a wonderful humble sincere person he was…May his neshama have an aliya.
Joel was a great husband, father, brother, and grandfather.
He had a brilliant mathematical mind, was beloved by all whom he touched, and downright the most honest and sincerest individual that I have come across.
God Bless Joel Recht.
Bde! May his neshama have an aliya, and may you and your family find comfort.
