11 years. I remember exactly where I was, and who I was with when I got the news. I still think about you all the time. I look you up and see your pictures. I miss you uncle Josh ❤ I still have your guitar in my room and I tried to learn to play but I’ve never really gotten any good. But you can bet I can still play the 3 chords of smoke on the water you taught me. I’ve never let anyone else touch that guitar. It has your pictures next to it. I know your still watching down on us especially your little girl. She’s really grown up so much. I don’t see her much but it’s like she grows a foot everytime I see her. We love and miss you ❤

Hey there angel of mine. I am having a hard time today dealing with the fact that three years ago today you were taken from us in the most tragic inhuman way. It is hard to believe that you have not been able to share the many beautiful moments you were suppose to be here for. I know you have never stopped watching from above but its just not fair for anybody that we don't have the honor of spending moments with you. Those are things I miss so ,much. I can always go into my thoughts And spend time with you there but I cant figure out how to reach out and hug you and pull you near us. I love you so much and so does your daughter we could never explain how much your missed hopefully you know the explanation already. Until we see each other again Love you viz

Hi "Homie", Josh you are missed so much, you, my mom and Ms. Blakeman all being gone is almost too much at times, but the reason for you leaving, only our good lord knows. Two years and seems as fresh as ever. You would have liked the kid that now lives in your little trailor, ya'll have have some of the same interest. You just keep looking over us and it will help us thru.

Hey Josh just thinking about you and wanted to say Hi I miss you of course. Watched some home videos that you helped make last night. They were hilarious. I'll never forget your videos of "possum hunting" and "sending Ty to the moon" with a fire extinguisher attached to his back. You had crazy ideas for videos. Even got one of you playing rock band. Love you always.

Hello Viz.
I really miss all those screennames you know Josh I never knew when I was a lil girl I would of meet the love of my life on the internet. I will always remember all those long chats and running up my moms cell phone bill talking to you why you watched the corn fields at Johnnys. I remember the morning you hit that deer you were so shookin up. Goodness we had so many amazing memories to share with our beautiful daughter. I hate it that your not here to share them with me now. Its not fair that I have to do this alone and your not here to be they great beautiful dad you were. She misses you so much. Every time were are outside and the stars are bright she looks up at the big open sky and points out the star thats her daddy. Our daughter will know the amazing person that her father was and she will never let that go. She has a few memories of when she was lil that she remembers our outings at the park and her bday party when she was scared of Terry and Michael and she sat in my lap the whole time. We laugh and cry about storys of life with you. Well you might have been tookin from us but your never forgotten about. We will see you again one day but until then watch us and save us from the earths harm. We love you Josh so much and miss you more than I could ever write. Until we meet again we love you baby. Love always.
Your wife and daughter

I don't know what to really write cause after 2 years it still seems like a dream that your gone. I keep waiting to get a phone call or text of some silly joke of yours. I love you just as much as always and will always have a piece of my heart missing where you were. I know your looking down on us and watching out for everyone that loved you. Love you always.

The world still feels wrong without you being here. I keep searching for answers as if knowing would bring you back. But there just isn't a reason that you're gone. I miss your sense of humor, hearing your voice and your smile. I miss you. You're in my thoughts daily and in my heart always. I'll be seeing you again. Love Mom

Gotta go, just wanted to say hi. Love ya, miss ya

Priscilla Pendleton

October 16, 2010

well its almost our fav holiday and I seem to always get so so sad around this time. Lately its been hard here on earth without you. I miss you so much josh i dont know how to ever begin to get over this or move on. I know we had our problems in the end but me and you both know the com=nnecrtion we both still had no matter what I knew if i need anything and you could get your hands on it you would do whatever you could to help me.It worked both ways. I love you so much josh and I dont know how to ket go of this and you. I can never let go of you I have the biggest part of you everyday making me get though the day. Our daughter is my guiding light and I could face the world without her. Its amazing how much power a five year old has.Josh we miss you so so much each day goes by I just imagine what we would be doing if you were still here and how great it wouldbe to just grab the phone and call you or to text you like we always did. I go to your myspace and look at those pics and wish there were new ones of you and your happy life. Why do people have to be so unfair its not fair and I dont want it to be this way Josh you were not suppose to leave us why did these things happen I dont know until i get there with you. I am so ready to hold you close to my heart. I will always have a place in my heart for you. I still go outside and look at the stars we might not be under the same sky and stars anymore but know your one of those shining stars out there and Jadeyn points at you every night. Josh watch over her and make sure I am doing a good job I will get better as time will heal me. I love you josh so very much and miss you more than words can say. I love you daddy (jadeyn asked me to tell you and I did.) god bless you..

Jadeyns first day of school!!

Priscilla Pendleton

October 1, 2010

hey you I am sorry I have been slacking at keeping up with you on here. You know I deffently talk a ear off to you. Josh I have been so busy doing this school thing its kinda how we thought it would be but she loves it. I have been so proud of her. I wish you could have been here to enter this journey of her life. I remember when she was like two and we would set there and aready talk about her first day of school and how we had planned it. Well the only part missing was the big part daddy. Josh we miss you so much it hurts. I have been doing my best as a single mom that doesnt stop thinking about how bad I wish you were here. I cry so much here lately has been a challenge. Jadeyn thinks about you everyday not a day goes bye not one single day that you are not mentioned by her. She drew me some pics the other day that maked me cry like a baby but I smiled and told her how sweet and beautiful they were and yes they were. She drew me and her and you. Me and her were on the ground and you were in the air with wings and a halo over your head. It was so presious but people dont know how had it is to see there five year old draw stuff like that. She wants to be near you so bad. She asked me when we get to go to heaven and be with you. I wish I didnt have to explain we cant just yet that god isnt ready for us but he needed you to take care of the earth so she can live. Its all very hard and sad but I cant change it as much as I wish I could. I really just want you to know we love you so much and miss you more everyday if thats possiable. I know your watching over her and I know you are so proud of that lil girl. I am so thankful and blessed to be able to share her life with her. I wish could do a better job in the parenting field but I do the best i can right know and shes healthy and taking care of you know an see that tho. Please watch her though these years of life and the challenges I need you but your to far to touch. I love you so much Josh and one day I can show you. God bless you, Btw your a beautiful angel and she glows when your around.....

Hi homie, Well it's postponed again, that's ok, time will prevail. Just wanted to read some more on your book, and this tells how many people you touched in your short life. Josh, you are always on our minds and ever present in our hearts, God I miss you. You would call and ask where I was, and have me swing past the store and as soon as I would enter (boom) like a lightening flash, you were gone... Anyone that knew you knew where you had gone..L.O.L... Just so many great memories, wanted you to know you are missed, and loved.

Priscilla Pendleton

June 10, 2010

Hey you,
Well I cant believe it but its been one year today sence me and Jadeyn said our see ya later good bye to you. I never thought a month later we would be saying our final good bye to you. I remember this day last year. We woke up early and spent the morning together we were so sad me and jadeyn were coming to dallas and you were going to be in ky. I still see the imagie in my head of you telling jadeyn you love her and holding her tight crying to her because you told her you did know when you were going to make it to see us but you were only a hop skip and a jump away. I want to make that hope skip and jump to see you. Josh we miss you so very much its so hard to believe its almost been a year sence I heard your voice. I would do anything to go back to that day. We love you so much and missing you is past the point. I hope that when they say things happen for reasons I hope they can one day tell me what reason this happen for because all it has done is made people sad lonely and unfortinate. I dont know if anyone wil ever know why but know that no matter how far in life we get your still going to be in our heartd and minds. we love you Josh and I hope you are with me the day I walk her to her first day of school. Its going to be hard we look forward to that day together. I will miss you that one more than usual. Well Josh we love you and this year has been so impossiable almost to continue I hope the next one is just a lil bit easier. Once agian we love you so much Josh....

Jadeyn is an incredible girl, who will grow up to be an incredible woman.We will always have a part of you in her, but it's just not the same.

Hey Josh,
I've been up in Northern VA and everything reminds me of you. Tony tries to avoid going down certain roads so that I won't start crying. But some days they bring back all sorts of laughs and smiles. Seems that each month brings another milestone to pass. The First 48 broadcast aired. If everyone has 15 minutes of fame, this shouldn't have been how yours should have turned out. Jadeyn turned 5 and I'm sure you were smiling on her as she blew out her candles.
Love, Mom

Josh
Hi there love todays another day thats going to be hard as ever to not have you with us,but what day isnt?We celabrate our baby girls 5th bday today and I am going to try to put all I have got into making this day special. Shes getting so big. She told me all she wants for her bday is daddy. I wish more than anything that I could give her that one wish because I would be making alot of people happy. Josh I have never had to celabrate a birthday without you and its so hard. Its early right know I cant sleep so I decided to write you and express so thoughts and feelings to you for you.Josh each day in the world is a challenge but feel like I am up for the test.I never imagined not having the option to call or something and know your one of the greatest memories in our hearts. I hate that ypur way past the phone call.Regardless you are always here if its in a thought or a conversation not a day goes by that you dont go though our minds and thoughts. I know you will be here today next to your lil girl she dosent understand why she cant touch and hug and see your spirit. I wish I could explain it all in a way she would understand but its hard when I myself have yet to understand why and who it had to be. Well love I want you to know I love you and will do my best to stay strong today for her birthday. I hope you know your with us daily and our babygirl loves you and misses you so much. She says it all day long seirously she said you were her bestfriend and she wishs she could find a real widhing well to wish for her daddy back. Well I guess until next time or my time We love you and miss you so very much.

Love always

Hey you I just thought I would let you know I love you Josh and I never let go on you and You never gave up on me.Well todays a special well was a special day. Happy anniversry!This would have been our five years of having the greatest friend partner and father.You and I both know we both know we had our ups and downs and no matter what a fight or not we always keep each other close and were always able to express what was really going on.I know you loved me more than any love I felt, and I know that our baby girl crys to me and asks me so much and tells so many stories and questions of daddy and where and why can I see him is he with god mommy. I hear some heart breaking things I just wish everyone understnads this is almost impossiable.Our girl misses you so much. I know you hear us and some time I am praying forforgiveness becuase nones perfect and I am doing everything I can to stay strong for her and for myself.

Josh, I broke down again last night...I just don't understand!! You were such an amazing person and friend to all...so why did you get taken away from us? Why do the good die young? I think about you everyday and it never gets any easier!! I've shed so many tears as you well know...but the pain never goes away! I miss hearing you play guitar and the "what's up homie" everyday...it's not fair!! I know you are in a better place watching over us all...but you should be here...watching and laughing with all of us! Having snowball fights and talking about memories or playing cards to pass our time at work...The kids still ask about you everyday and miss you dearly! It's so hard trying to explain it to them...I hope they never forget you!! You are forever in our hearts, until we met again, much love homie <3

Josh Its been the hardest time of my life. We have gone 7long months today sence we got the chance to tell you that we love you and to hear your voice. This has been the most absent filling I have ever felt in my life. I am blessed and lucky enough to share something so amazing and wonderful with you that anyone could compare. Our beautiful little girl. Jadeyn misses you so very much and as well as I do. I asked god why would he make such a sweet little person fill so lost and confused. I understand what happen to you I dont understand why and how do I explain this to the little girl that has every question you could imagiane. She asks about you every day and I know you know what I am talking about. Josh this fills like it is impossiable. I could never fill your part in this situation. You are missed more and more everyday. I dont know were to begin to be the father you were to her,but I know I have no choice and I know you would want me to do everything I can to show her the ropes of the way life is suppose to be and the right way to become the women she can be. I know you are so proud of the creation you have put on earth. I am proud to have the chance to share this unexplainable fillin with someone so wonderful and graceful. I love you so much Josh and never imagiane life with out you here to guide her though this unsure world. I will be here till the end and I will fight for your justice untill the day they are no longer takin the air from the ones who deserve to breathe. God rest your soul love and thank you for listen I know your there and she does to she just wants to see and hold your spirit but I explain you are there but we cant see you just yet cause your away from the evil disaster we all know we take on everyday. I love you Josh and we will see hug ad hold you one day so just be there waiting for us with open arms and endless love as we will have for you. Rip Joshua Jarrin Pendleton(Viz)

Hey Josh,
I woke again this morning with you in my dreams. Its hard waking up in tears and missing you so much. I try to keep upbeat when I speak with Jadeyn but it takes a lot to get through a conversation with her and not think of how much she is missing out. She says she plays the guitar for you. I hope you're spirit is watching over her and enjoying the tunes. I'll see you in my dreams and hold you in my heart.

Love, Mom

Hi buddy, well haven't wrote in awhile, like everyone else working and trying to move on, Josh not a single day passes that you're not thought of, and so badly missed. Nothing would give me more pleasure than to be able to throw a snowball at you, and I'm sure you would be eager to return one. Tomorrow is Valentines Day will ya give mom and Ms.B a big hug for me,, Thanks "Homie" love ya and miss ya.

It's been six long months since Joshua was taken from us. Yet, I thank God every day for having brought him into our lives. He was very special in so many ways; and is missed by so many. I take comfort, though, in seeing Joshua in the sweet face of his Jadeyn. He'll be in my heart always. Love, Delia Siebert (Mom)

Hi J.J,I heard about what happened a couple of months ago.I just don't understand.....They say that god has your life all planned out from begining to end.Then why???Why would he let this happen to you?I think about you all the time.It makes my heart race and i feel so sick and sad.I try talking to you not knowing if you are there.I thought maybe if I wrote to you I will feel better,but I am not sure.I just wanted you to know that I love you and think often of the fun we had together when we were kids.You were always my best friend,and always there for me as i was you.I hope you are full of peace.My heart goes out to your mom,wife and little girl.Love you always.

We've started the New Year without you and it still doesn't seem real. A toast to a Happy New Year didn't feel right and it looks as if 2010 will be a hard one. Jadeyn is playing the guitar. Hope you've enjoyed her serenades. Love Mom

Well it's New Years Eve, if you were still here you would have closed the Smoke shop at 8 p.m and partied like a rock star till midnight, we'll do it for you, keep an eye out over us, keep us safe, and we will talk soon, "Homie".

It's Christmas evening, and I was thinking of how we might have spent it if you had not been taken. I know in my heart your in a better place and you are watching over Jadeyn and all the rest of us but it doesn't stop the pain. Last night was hard for me cause mom and I always made it special on Christmas Eve, and now this will be the first Christmas I'll not be sharing left overs with John's mom, (Ms.B) and sitting around watching t.v till late night. As Michael says, "we should be greatful for what we have and not saddened over what we've not", smart for a young person. Buddy, you're looking down and know the effect you being taken away has had on all that have known you, he really misses you and never a day pass that we don't talk about you. Merry Christmas to you, as always we miss you, and love ya, "Homie"...

Its Christmas morning. I thought of many past holidays and your guitar sitting next to the tree with a santa hat topping it off. I'm hoping you'll be looking down at Jadeyn when she plays her new Christmas guitar. It looked so much like your early guitar. It was the first thing I saw as I entered the store to shop. I felt as if you had led me to it. I know your spirit will be with her when she plays. May her notes bring you a smile in heaven.

Love Mom

Josh, buddy, don't know what to say except, after 5 long, heart felt months it seems like only yesterday. Buddy, you had come so far and had the world ahead of you. Well, that was changed and not by your doing. Just always know what kind of a person and friend you were to us and how great of a father you were, no matter the outcome nobody can ever change that. As always you are so missed, and always will be, your friend forever.
