Yesterday, Christmas, I learned that K2QBV, Joel Harvey Kornreich, born June 19, 1940, had become a silent key on December 25, 2020. Our friendship developed over the years on a 2 meter repeater. Joel became one of my elmers as I began operating HF. I met many of his friends over the radio. He will be missed by the international amateur radio community.
My goodness, what a shock to learn of Joel’s passing only a Couple of days past on Christmas Day! Deepest condolences to Joel’s family, he was a mensch! Greg Mitchell W2MYA
