It is with deep sorrow in our hearts to share the passing of Joel Yale Moss. An incredible man, husband, father, brother, grandpa, father-in-law, cousin and friend.
Joel was born on May 8,1949, in New York to the late Evelyn and Murray Moss. He was the oldest of his three siblings, the late Robert Moss and Judy Steinberg. Words cannot sum up Joel’s character; he was loving, generous, resilient, brave, strong-willed and funny, to name a few. An accomplished academic, Joel graduated from Cornell undergrad and Emory Law school, settling in Atlanta and later meeting his wife and the love of his life, Karen, and building a home together in Sandy Springs, Ga. Together, they shared countless memories, traveling, dining at wonderful restaurants and, most importantly, spending time with family and friends. His personality was infectious and his love was felt by all. He was a truly special man.
Joel is survived by his wife, Karen Moss, daughter, Marissa Tinter (Robert Tinter), granddaughter, Rowan Tinter, mother-in-law, Elayne Friend, sister, Judy Steinberg (Jeff Steinberg) sister-in-law, Lisa Kreiss (Ned Kreiss), nieces and nephews, Rachel Moss, Jacob Moss, Ava Kreiss, Matthew Steinberg and Jared Steinberg.
A graveside funeral service was held on Tuesday, Feb. 11 at 10 a.m. at Arlington Memorial Park (201 Mt. Vernon Highway, Atlanta, 30328). Arrangements by Dressler’s Jewish Funeral Care, 770-451-4999.
