To Tom and Barb, you are definately two of the best parents I've ever known. Always there, always able to laugh and love your boy ( and mine!) even thru their notorious escapades! Josh could not have been loved more and he knew it. To Emily and Allison(and sweet Ken), the love you have for your brother(and him for you) is a wonderful gift you will always have. Right now, the pain is so deep and so searing, but the day will come when you will only laugh with your memories. Always remember how proud Josh was of both of you and the beautiful young women his sisters had become. To Amanda,the amazing beautiful women his dreams were made of,I know you'll forever carry your love for Josh in a special place in your heart and soul and someday that love will honor his life and your time together in ways you can't yet imagine. To Josh's extended family who will miss him dearly, it was very clear to all what a wonderful, close- knit bunch all of you are.Josh was blessed to have all of you and you him and someday, all that love will bring you peace. To Josh's buddies(guys and gals!), there's no sense to be made of losing someone you love so much and who was such a truly good person and friend.I was so proud of all of you coming together to honor him. He was smiling and crying with all of you I'm sure. To Josh, I will forever remember your sweet smile and the twinkle in your eye that made me wonder just what the heck you were up to now....Godspeed dear, sweet Josh...we will all always miss you, honey.

Josh was one of the best storytellers I ever knew; often leaving both of us in tears laughing. You were always game for shenanigans and always had the best get-togethers. You lived life intensely and passionately; always willing to help out a friend even if we hadn't talked in a little while. It never seemed like we missed a beat when we did catch up. Our secret society, the missions, and its members along with all the great times in the neighborhood will never leave me. You were an honorable man and a fierce friend a testament to your upbringing and family. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family my friend. Rest in piece brother we'll see you again.

Josh (or FERR-ON as I liked to call you): So many memories, so many moments, so much love my Irish brother-from-another-mother. You were truly one-of-a-kind my friend, and our neighborhood crew wouldn't have been the same without you and all the fun you brought to the table. For the rest of my time on this earth I'll especially treasure those moments we stood side-by-side on the field of battle at the Beaver Bowl. You were a physical presence, fierce and menacing in the face of the opposition, and you taught me (among many, many things) to embrace and enjoy the physicality of the game that meant the world to us both. I will always remember you with that bubbling intensity, conjuring it up in the moments we needed it the most to inspire your teammates. And it was never fake, or forced, because there was nothing phony about you, my dude. You were a great friend, leader, brother, son, so many things to so many people. My family loved you as a member of our family, and you embraced us as members of yours. I'll never forget you best bud, and I know someday this will all make sense, but right now it don't make sense at all. Love you Ferron and "I'll see you, see you on the otherside"
