Obituary

Joel S. Katz, 86. Beloved husband for 37 years to Harriet, nee Marx; devoted father of Jamie Katz (Rue Turner) and Rick Katz; caring stepfather of Mark (Caron) Glickman, Larry (Lynn) Glickman, and Jim Glickman (Marcie Kleinman); proud grandfather of Jacob Glickman, Eliana (Michael) Morris, Shoshana Glickman, Sydney Katz, Jessica Glickman, Sophie Glickman (Adam Jones), Adam Glickman, Mia Katz, and Sammi Katz; loving brother of Susan (Bob) Buckwald, Nancy (the late Gary) Luck, Zvi (Linda) Berger, and the late Amy (Maurice) Cohen; fond former spouse of Lori Chase and former father-in-law of Cindy Katz; treasured uncle, cousin, and friend of many. Joel was a valued civil engineer with the Minnesota Department of Transportation for over 45 years. He was a cellist extraordinaire and loved music. He was a gentle soul – never said a bad word about anyone. Joel will be deeply missed by all whose lives he touched.
