It is with the heaviest heart that I share that Joel passed peacefully on January 11, 2026. He fought so bravely, with so much grace and faith, right to the very end.

Joel was my partner, my best friend, and one of the most compassionate souls I have ever known. He dedicated his life to helping others find healing, hope, and peace through energy medicine and holistic care. While Joel worked professionally in his practice, he also had an incredibly generous heart and often offered his gifts to those who couldn’t afford help, simply because he believed no one should suffer alone.

So many people were touched by Joel’s kindness, wisdom, and gentle spirit. Knowing how many lives he helped makes me so proud, and it also reminds me how deeply he will be missed.

Throughout his illness, I was by his side every step of the way, doing everything I could to give him the best care possible — emotionally, physically, and financially. I poured everything I had into making sure Joel was supported and comfortable, never thinking twice about the cost. Now, as I try to navigate life without him, I am facing the overwhelming expenses of his cremation and memorial.

I am hoping to raise $15,000 to help cover Joel’s final arrangements so I can give him the peaceful, beautiful goodbye he deserves — one that honors the incredible life he lived and the love he shared with so many.

Asking for help during a time like this is incredibly difficult, but any amount, no matter how small, would mean more to me than I can express. Your support will allow me to focus on grieving, remembering, and honoring Joel’s life instead of worrying about finances.

If Joel ever helped you, supported you, or brought you comfort, please know how grateful I am for any way you choose to give back.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for holding me, Joel, and our loved ones in your prayers and kindness during this heartbreaking time
