Josh, Josh, Josh...I am so sad that you have left this Earth...and a little angry with God for taking you away from your family. I will need to make peace with your passing...as your Mom and Dad have worked so hard to do. They will have to do that every day for the rest of their lives, I believe. You always had so much energy and so many years yet to grow in character and strength ...and to start a family of your own....It is so hard to let go of a child, even a grown one. I can still see you in my mind...you and Levi acting like the blonde-headed little terrorists, not afraid of any wild adventure...you and Junior playing Mario Bros. and kicking butt...your Mom helping you with your daily school homework...you and Levi with clear leeches on your skin from playing in a pond. I can still see your Mom and I taking 7 kids to play outside, or at the park, or to a ball game, a picnic....just everywhere. I remember hearing that you peed on the electric fence one time. I'm sure Levi had to do the same. You were always active, and you would find a way to have fun. I am upset that you will not be here, Josh. I did not get to spend time with you as you became a man, but I always had high hopes for you to be happy and enjoy life. Your parents tried their very best to set a good example for you, and to encourage a good education and value system. In the end, it was up to you to apply their teaching to your own life...and I know you would have at some point. I just wish your family had been given more time with you. Just more time. It is frustrating, Josh. I will feel sad for a very long time. Your Mom and Dad and brother will be sad for even longer. As long as we remember you , Josh, you will still be home. But you will be forever at beautiful peace at your new one. You are loved. Aunt Jean

I hadn't seen Josh in many years. But when we were younger he was one of my close friends. I was saddened by the news of his passing. My thoughts and prayers and with his family and friends. Please know he will not be forgotten.

Carla, Gene, and Junior
I am terribly sorry to hear that Josh has parted this world so soon. Though there are no words I can say to ease your pain I can tell you that as time passes you will be able to focus more on good memories than the heartache that is so overwhelming at this time. Me and Rachel were just talking about Josh (and Junior) and the crazy things we did as kids, like make mud pies and swing from the tree swing at the top of the hill. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Memories will keep you going and you will find strength in knowing that heaven has one more angel watching over us.
Love
