I got your facebook friend request
only a few weeks before I found out
you passed. It's astonishing how
fast and unexpectedly life takes
such sharp turns. My hopes and
prayers go out to your family.
& may you rest in peace
within your heaven above- forever.

Your family is in my prayers

You were always the quiet one in class. I'm sorry to hear of your passing. May you rest in a place much more lovely than the one in which you left. Thank you for all you have given to the world in your short time here. My condolences to your family, and to the rest that cared for you.

Ann, Tom, and Noel,
I am so very sorry to have just heard of your loss. I can't begin to imagine the grief you feel in your hearts. I remember when you moved into your house on Linder BEFORE Joel was born!

May it be of comfort to know that in Joel's next awareness, he will be basking in the love and warmth of our Creator.

Joel:
I still remember meeting you in fourth grade when you and your family moved to Morton Grove, the good ol' days of childhood. Over the past nine or so years, it has been great not only knowing you, but being good friends with you. There are many memories that I will never forget. I will definitely miss you and you will be forever remembered.

Dearest Tom, Ammal, and Noel,
Together with all the other members of our Woodside Chapel family I mourn the loss of your fine son and brother, Joel. How wonderful to see God's grace at work in your lives during these past days of sorrow and weeping. God has provided an amazing network of family and friends to impart love and strength to you all. Our assembly will do all we can to honor Joel's memory with truth and justice. I pray that my own favorite Scripture, Romans 8:38-39, will comfort you greatly. With much love in the Lord Jesus Christ, Bob

Joel,

You were a very good friend. I remember playing everyday and riding our bikes around back at our old houses. Living 2 houses away from eachother provided for some great memories. I will rememeber and cherish these memories forever. You always brought a smile to my face and i wouldnt trade the years we spent playing till the sun went down for anything. You and your family will be in my prayers, especially during these tough times. I'm sure i will see you again in heaven.

Joel,

It was great getting to know you throughout our lives. we grew up together, played ping pong at Woodside, and had some great memories at IBF conferences.
we'll miss you, and we know that we'll see you in Heaven one day.

I'm truly sorry for your loss. I remember when you guys used to live in your old house, next to Alish, and we used to play together and ride our bikes. Joel was always such a happy guy, and I don't think I have ever seen a frown on his face the four years I had high school with him. I will be praying for Joel and the rest of the Wilson family during these hard times, especially throughout the holidays.

Joel was, in so many ways, my best friend. I’ll miss hearing his voice and hearing his laugh. I’ll miss how he made me laugh. He was always so vibrant and full of life. I thank our Heavenly Father that Joel gave his heart and life to Jesus as a young man, and kept the things of God close to his heart; and because of that, he’s living more abundantly now than he ever did when he was here with us.

Wilson Uncle, aunty, and Noel - My deepest condolences and sincere sympathies to you and your family during this time.

May God grant you a measure of HIS peace and serenity.

It has been about 15 years since i have seen you guys, but i remember Joel from Prayer meetings when he and Noel were infants.

Joel is now in a better place where there is no fear or pain; where he and those that have passed before him wait for you all with open arms.
