Joe Voelz - A Founder of the Grandview Yacht Club

We are saddened at the loss of Joe Voelz who was one of several founders of the GYC fifty six years ago, and one of those who was a driving force of the club.  During those years Joe and Phyllis’ family has become a sailing dynasty here at Grandview.  Joe was a champion sailor, winning all of GYC’s various trophies and serving as its commodore. We are grateful to Joe and Phyllis for helping found the club and make it such an important part of the Grandview Lake community.  As you know, Joe’s son,  Jim and wife Peggy, and their daughter Laura are still regularly winning sailing trophies and championships and make Grandview Lake a great place.  We extend our heart-felt sympathy to the whole family.
