TimO 6 Posted October 14, 2017 It is with much sadness to announce that my very close friend of over 20 years and moderator on HybridZ, Joel Soileau, passed away unexpectedly in his sleep yesterday. He will be sorely missed as a friend to many of us as well as a loyal and dedicated contributor to HybridZ. Rest In Peace my good buddy. http://forums.hybridz.org/profile/181-rb26powered74zcar/ 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JMortensen 241 Posted October 14, 2017 Sorry to hear this. He had been having some health issues but didn't seem like this kind of thing was imminent. Another loss for the Z community. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rturbo 930 31 Posted October 14, 2017 Damn. That's a real shame. At least he passed away peacefully in his sleep versus a long drawn out illness, especially considering he'd had cancer before. Rest in peace. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NewZed 64 Posted October 14, 2017 He did a great job as a moderator here. He seemed like a really good guy. Looks like he was active on the site just recently, so it must have been sudden. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jhm 120 Posted November 26, 2017 Just saw this, and have to say Joel's passing is another big loss to the Z community and everyone that knew him. He was a big help to me during my recent build; and I knew he was having some health issues, but had no idea how serious. Truly an all-round nice guy. Sometimes life really sucks. RIP buddy, and Blue Skies. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
