I always knew there would be a point that Joel would have to expand his horizons and move on. Well, we have reached that point. As you know Joel and I are friends and will always remain friends. He has decided to pursue other options and avenues life has to offer and as much as I will miss him, I respect his wishes and wish him nothing but the best life has to offer.”
