Joel Rostau's Senior Class High School Picture

Brookline High School Class of 1954

I also was able to find that Joel was a Freemason. 



A link to the lodge that Joel belonged to-

I notice that the date of death is in correct on the card.

The plastic company that Joel was general manager of was Paulson Co. located in Brookline MA.  Joel's mother was the president of the company.

    I've had a friend tracing him on Ancestry this past week. He apparently has a sister who is a year older. She is still alive, I think, because every year he is memorialized on his date of death at a Boston-area synogogue. His parents were Morris and Beth. They were listed as living at 50 State St. in Brookline, let me see if I can find the link. You're welcome to e-mail me for the sister's name, Matt has my real name & contact info. I also have some leads on his L.A. "workplace" that are intriguing in terms of possibilities. You're an AWESOME researcher, Deb. I'd be glad to give you the info. I will say that I find it interesting that Pic Dawson's alibi was based out of Massachusetts.
