JOSHUA CONSTANTINE Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers from Jun. 5 to Jun. 6, 2012.
BANGOR - Joshua Richards Constantine, 37, died unexpectedly June 2, 2012, in Bangor. He was born April 4, 1975, in Bangor, son of Joseph and Kathleen Constantine. Joshua attended Bangor schools, Tilton Academy and Outward Bound Adventure programs, where his love of nature and his spirit were nurtured and cultivated. Josh's love for skiing eventually led him to become an employee of Sugarloaf Mountain and Attitash Mountain. Josh was a lifelong rock climbing enthusiast, who established many rock climbing and bouldering routes around New England. In addition to his parents, Joshua is survived by his daughter, Kaya, the light of his life; his sister and always hopeful friend, Meghan and husband, Craig Fellis, and their children, Casey, Jonathan, Brittany, Orion and Thomas; grandparents, Walter and Velva Constantine; aunt, Susan Warren and her children, John and Margaret Thibodeau, and their daughters, Tricia and Mollie, Deborah and James Walker, Kathleen Warren and David Warren and fiancee, Julie Comerford; several loving great-aunts, great-uncles and cousins. Joshua will be dearly missed by his best friends, Chris and Michelle Ruhlin; and his coworkers at Herbal Tea and Tobacco Co., where for the past 15 years he greeted customers and artisans with kindness and enthusiasm. Relatives and friends are invited to call 5-8 p.m. Thursday, June 7, at Brookings-Smith, 133 Center St., Bangor. Private graveside services will be held at Oak Grove Cemetery, Bangor. A celebration of his life will be held at a later date and time to be announced. Those wishing to remember Josh in a special way may make contributions in his memory to WERU-FM, P.O. Box 170, East Orland, ME 04431, where he found peace, through music, every day; or YMCA Camp Jordan Leader's School, 17 Second St., Bangor, ME 04401, attention: Mike Seile, where Josh and his sister shared many summer memories. Condolences to the family may be expressed at www.BrookingsSmith.com. "If a man loses pace with his companions, perhaps he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured, or far away." -H. Thoreau

Kathy, Joe, and Meg:

My thoughts have been with you almost constantly since learning that we lost Josh. It's an unbelievable loss. I think Josh may have been one of my most constant friends in my childhood. Moving every 3 years meant people coming and going in my life, but every summer I had Josh. I can still see the awkward overextension of his thumb as he hit the tetherball with his tongue pressing against the corner of his mouth. I can remember listening for the whirr of his little boat to break up the boredom of lake life in our adolescence when my own brothers weren't around camp any longer (sorry Mom). I don't think I realized just how big of a part of my childhood he was. Josh~your heart has a home in mine.

I am so sorry to hear about Josh's passing. I remember how much my brother looked up to him and how he always said he wanted to do things because "Josh Constantine can do it!" and it brings a smile to my face. I remember thinking how cool he was :) My thoughts are with your family.

Josh came to my home regularly. He shared food , music , ideas , laughter , stories ( lots of stories). Sometimes he would help out with work around our home. We talked about so many different things & he was easily one of the kindest , most peaceful people I ever knew. He made us laugh & smile , & sometimes made us worry. Over the many years of our friendship , he became family to us. There is no other like Josh. We treasure the time we had & will always remember. Our hearts are with yours , his blood family. With our deepest sympathy. Jim , Patty & Meg

I never knew Josh but I can see he was a great guy, he reminds me so much of my own son. I am not sure why or how but that night as I was leaving the Zac Brown show I was put in the terrible situation of being next to Josh when this terrible accident occured he was only feet away we tried to save his life within seconds, we assured him everything would be ok. we got more help and it seemed an ete...rnity somehow I knew it wouldnt be enough but I gave all I had, we never know when things like this will happen but I can assure you that at this terrible time Josh was not alone and will be forever in my heart and memories. My heart goes out to all his friends and family, all I ask is that everyone of you hug a loved one and tell them you Love them because we never know when God will bring another Angel to Heaven, All my thoughts and prayers, Ron Eby

My deepest sympathy. I have spent the past few days reflecting on Josh and I sailing, beach clubbing, tenting on the islands, running the Johnson 9.9 through gallons and gallons of gas, leaders school. He was a wonderful person with such compassion and love. I caught up with him often on Patten St. He loved his childhood and shared the same fond memories. Meg and Josh both are wonderful people who mean and meant a lot in my life.
