Joel William Teshka, 64, died April 22, 2016, at his home in Holly, Michigan. He is survived by his wife of 45 years; Marlene Teshka, and their two daughters; Jennifer and Abby; brothers Ivan and Brian, and sister Jeanne. He was preceded in death by his parents, Gerald and Shirley, as well as his brother Dennis. Joel was an Iron Worker for many years and found great joy in his work. One of his favorite pastimes was hunting and fishing. Joel and his family enjoyed fond memories as they spent summers at their cabin in Thessalon, Ontario. Joel was hard working, kind, generous, mischievous and loyal. Joel’s life would seem too short to many, but those who were touched by him understood that the quality of existence far exceeds the quantity of time in which he lived. His contagious smile brought joy to all who encountered him. Services will be held at Dryer Funeral Home in Holly, Michigan on April 27, 2016.
