Joel is one of the kindest, fun loving people I ever had the privilege of knowing. His love for The Lord and the way he cared for those around him is something to be admired. The testimonies so many have shared just show what kind of a person he really was. There is so much sadness for those Joel left behind, but we take comfort in knowing he is free from pain and will never shed a tear again.

Joel - It is still so hard to believe that you are no longer with us, but to know we will see you again is what brings comfort and peace during the heartbreak. To know we will get to see that huge smile again someday gives us something to look forward to. I'll never forget the good times I got to spend with you and Elisabeth when we were younger and I would come up from Texas to visit . Those memories will be etched in my mind forever. I'll never forget your awesome sense of humor, lightheartedness, and love for the Lord and everyone around you. Our car talks were the best for sure!!! Although distance and life got in the way and I had not talked to you in several years, whether you knew it or not your friendship meant the world to me. You were and still are an amazing person and you will be missed more than you could ever know. Until we meet again!
Elisabeth - I know the love you have for Joel and I cannot even begin to imagine the pain you are feeling. I will continue to pray for you and your sweet babies and ask God to comfort you and mend your heart. I love you dearly my sweet friend and sister.
Brother Ralph and Sister Naomi - I can't even express how sorry I am for your loss or imagine what y'all are going through. I love you both very much and I will continue to keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

My heart is breaking for you, your children and Naomi and Ralph...there really aren't any words to express my deepest sympathy! You had true love and that doesn't happen for most of us...you didn't settle and the Lord led you and Joel together. I know you will cherish every memory! You are all on my heart and mind each and every hour! Sending sisterly love and knowing that the Lord will be with you to comfort you during this time....love to the entire Mills family!

We are so sorry for your loss. During this time may you find comfort in family and friends (Proverbs17:17). For additional strength, may you find it in God who cares for you (1 Peter 5:7). Please accept our deepest condolences.

I cannot begin to express the amount of love and respect I have always had for my dear cousin Joel. I have been holding on to all of our memories over the years and am so thankful to have grown up with such an amazing person. I know that you are in a better place and that is what I have been holding onto during this incredibly hard time. I will love you forever and always. Love, Annemarie

And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away."
My sincere condolences to the Mills family and those who knew and loved Joel on the loss of your dear loved one.
May these words of Revelation 21:4 give you a measure of comfort and strength to endure during this time of grief and deep sorrow.

It's taken me a few days to figure out what I can say to you Joel, and your family. After constant thought day and night I still cannot find the words to express how I feel about your loss and sympathy for your family and I don't think I ever will find them. What I can do is share just how special I think you are.
We were close friends as teenagers when we worked together at Bob Evans-my most cherished memories from that point in my life. You were so positive, full of energy and silly. You found a way to make everything fun and always were looking out for me even if that meant you worked three hours late to help me close down that dreaded pie case.
A decade later most of my relationships and memories from that job have faded but what I remember the most is you. You have a light about you that is undeniable. We both grew older and that means sometimes people grow apart but it wasn't for a lack of friendship but because of distance and busy lives and starting our own families. But, there are people that are placed in our lives for a purpose and although it may be for a season, you were significant and this is true because of the heartache I know will never leave me.
You grew into a hero with your line of work but I think it is important to know you were a hero long before that, even if you didn't know it. I'm praying for your family and hope they find peace. I hope that you are looking down on us and smiling at how much love and admiration there is for you and just how much you mean to all of us.

Joel.....You will be greatly missed. Fond memories at CEMS from the beginning with Timmy and Betty to the end on the MICU. Dysfunctional family breakfasts and your infectious laugh when I'd make John blush in seconds. Your dedication to the Lord, your family, friends and patients was obvious. You will be missed and not forgotten.
