Joshua Conard Obituary

Joshua Lee Conard, 17, of Phoenix, Arizona, was tragically taken from his family and friends on Monday, June 21, 2004. He is survived by his twin brother, Jordan, older brother, Jacob, father Kim, mother and stepfather, Cynthia and Bill Shields; grandmother, Marian Alford, Ellensburg, WA and grandfather and step grandmother, Bob & Bonnie Lym of Riggins, ID, numerous aunts, uncles and cousins. Joshua attended Sunnyslope High School and would have been a Senior this fall. His passion was playing basketball. Joshua played on the Sunnyslope Varsity Team with his twin brother, Jordan. The overwhelming outpour of love and support by his hundreds of friends and their families has helped in giving the family the strength they need to get through this tragedy. Memorial services will be held at 10:00 AM on Saturday, June 26th at the Church of the Beatitudes, 555 W. Glendale Ave. at the SE corner of Seventh Ave. and Glendale. In lieu of flowers, please make donations to the Hunter White Memorial Fund in care of the Arizona Community Foundation, 2122 East Highland Ave., Suite 400, Phoenix, AZ 85016.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.

I remember these kids hooping at LA fitness. Really good kids and amazing basketball players. I pray for continued strength in the family. I know this had to be the toughest life event to live through. Stay strong Jordan. I know it's still tough to this day. I never saw one without the other.

Rest in paradise Joshua

August 15, 2013

If Roses grow in Heaven,
Lord pick a bunch for me.
Place them in Joshua,s arms and tell him they're from me.
Tell him I love him and miss him, and when he turns to smile place a kiss upon his cheek and hold him for awhile,
Because remembering him is easy I do it every day, but there's an ache within my heart
that will never go away.

We love and miss you so very much.
We miss seeing your smile and hearing your laugh.
Not a day goes by without us thinking of you and missing you.

Forever in our hearts
Your family
