Joel Zaremsky, beloved husband, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather, passed away on Jan 25th, 2026, at 86 years of age. Joel was born in the Bronx, NY, to Peter & Gertrude Zaremsky on Dec 7th, 1939.
He is survived by Karen, his wife of 39 years, and his three sons, Bryan, Jeff, & David, and their spouses Lynn, Barbara, and Amber, as well as his grandchildren Lisa, Micah, & Lielle, and three great-grandchildren Jayden, Mark, and Ezra. Joe is predeceased by his parents, and brother Barry.
Joel enjoyed antique collecting and tinkering with his hands, whether wood working, mechanical work, or electrical. He had a strong work ethic and strived to do all things perfectly. He worked hard throughout his career and enjoyed his quiet retirement in northern Georgia with his soulmate, Karen, and visits from the family. Joel was easy to get along with and talk to. He was filled with interesting stories and humor. Joel is already greatly missed.
