I just learned of Josh's passing through an alumni newsletter from college. Sad and shocking news for someone I will always remember to be so full of life! We went to school at the Academy and collage, and while not the closest of friends, we always had time for each other. College was fun for us with a few classes together, but mostly the time we and other mutual friends spend in the lounge area. We even got in a few rounds of bad golf together. Such an open and easy going person. Reading the many beautiful memories folks have shared...it certainly is a wonderful tribute to a beautiful man.

My deepest sympathies to all of you for your loss. Just know that you all have been in my thoughts. My memory of Josh was that he was a kindhearted, energetic and fun guy. He was always smiling whenever I would see him - back in the day.

We are so sorry...Josh has been such a wonderful presense in our lives as we have worked on our homes...and my in-laws homes! He has always been so kind and wonderful to us and the kids! He left us far too soon...our thoughts are with the entire Beissel family...
October 21, 2012
Dear Beissel Family...Josh has been such a good and wonderful friend over the years, as we have restored our homes...as he suggested ways to make our older home safer for our children...and as he gave us advice on our hoped for canine addition to our family...we can only imagine your shock and sorrow. Bless you so much in your time of grief...our thoughts and prayers are with you all.

I met Josh and Jeff when i was the Building Official for West St Paul and I have never met two finer gentlemen. It was my pleasure to work with them over 19 years and i will miss his humor in all situations. My prayers are with the family.
October 17, 2012
Thank you for sharing such wonderful, totally Josh photos.
In the last few days since learning of Josh's passing, all I've talked with whose path Josh crossed, had stories similar to mine.
A few years ago, I attended the wedding of a dear young lady who spent many of her teen years playing in dog sports. My husband couldn't attend so I went alone. When Josh saw me, although it had been nearly 10 years since we'd seen each other, he greeted me like his best friend. (How Did you do that Josh? We All felt that way with you.)
Josh then went on to share enthusiastically his real life fairy tale ... one in which he was the Prince and his cherished Princess (Kim) were excited to ride off into the sunset!
None of us knew the 'ever after' would be so short; but the quality of what Josh shared with so many was unique and so very special; truly godly love.
Lord, thank you for sharing him with so many ... and with us.
With deepest sympathies to all of you,
Martha and Tim Healy Hillman, MN

The Photos are so Totally Josh. Thank you for sharing them.
Since learning of Josh's passing, I've talked with a number of folks whose path Josh crossed.
A few years ago, I attended the wedding of a dear young lady who spent her teen years playing in dog sports. My husband wasn't able to attend so I went alone. When seeing me, Josh treated me like his best friend .. and although it was nearly 10 years since we'd seen each other, it was like it was yesterday. (How Did you do that Josh? We All felt that way with you.)
Josh then went on to enthusiastically share his real life, fairy tale .. he was the Prince and Kim, his cherished Princess.
Fairy tales are to last for 'ever after'. Josh, yours was far shorter than any could foresee, and certainly shorter than I would've wished for you, but the quality of what you shared with so many was unique and so very special; truly godly love.
Lord, thank you for sharing Josh with so many ... and thank you that we were included.
With deepest sympathies,

I once heard someone say that it is
not death that brings us the greatest loss in life, but all that dies inside of us.. As life goes on, I hope that we
all find ways to celebrate the memory
of Josh... I know he would want all to live everyday to the fullest and continue to the celebration of his contagious love for life... May time speed your healing.

We met Josh some 25 years ago when he drove almost 100 miles to our cabin to deliver windows. Since then he has helped us many times. We have recommended Beissel to 3 neighbors and to my elderly mother. Josh was a smooth salesman and a true businessman. Mother, at the age of 93 told me her friend Josh was coming over for coffee and to look at her roof. He was a fine man. It is nice to do business with someone you like and feel good about. And oh the dogs.
He alwaws had time for our 4 lb pooch.
You have lost a special man. Our prayers and your memories will keep you strong. Bob & Pat Johnson St.Paul

Josh was an amazing man and will be missed more than words could ever express. I had the priviledge of not only working for him but with him for 20 years, he was more like a brother than a boss. I am so grateful for all he has taught me, I miss him deeply. It has been my honor to work for Jeff and Josh and I am so proud of all they have accomplished together. They are remarkable. Our Beissel family will be forever changed by this great loss and I am amazed by the strength in all those around me. Josh I will miss your guidance, your smile and your humor. May God Bless you and all of us who are grieving your loss.

Jeff and all your family members......
Vickie and I used to say you and Josh were "our brothers" from another mother! I extend my deepest sympathy to you all on the tragic loss of such a beloved soul!. My first thought after hearing the news of Josh's passing was that I hoped Vickie was there with Jack and Rosemary to greet him as he entered the pearly gates of heaven----just like coming through the doors at work!! Josh will be sorely missed, and we pray that God's strength and love will carry you and your family members through this difficult time. I will always remember Josh's great smile and sense of humor, as well as his incredible personality and wonderful people skills. My parents send their condolences and want to let you know how appreciative they are that you and Josh were a big part of Vickie's life here on earth. We are all keeping you in our thoughts and prayers.

Jeff, Katie, and the entire Beissel family, We are so sorry to hear about Josh. He had such a magnetic personality. This was evident even as a young boy growing up in our Eagan neighborhood of the 60's & 70's. My brother, Alan, & him spent many days of their youth together. Josh became a wonderful man. A part of him will always be with us via replacment windows & siding! May his spirit & love of life live on!! Our deepest sympathies to you and your families.

I only ran with Animal Inn for a short time, but even before and after that Josh was always so helpful with whatever you needed. When ever I saw him, it was like seeing an old friend, with a huge hug and a peck on the cheek. My heart breaks for Kim, his family and all of Animal Inn. I'm sure Josh is watching over all of you. He will be greatly missed.

My friend josh is gone now and my life will never be the same. Jeff, over the last week you have endured way more than your share of hardship and as always you are a rock! I admire your strength.

They say it takes a minute to find a special person, an hour to appreciate them, a day to love them, but an entire lifetime to forget them.
It's amazing to read all the entries here and on Facebook about how much Josh meant to everyone. He truly was a great friend to everyone! He was a great man who was always so fun to be around! We will miss him!!!

Some of my funniest moments of Flyball include Josh; I have laughed so hard with this guy and he never ever passed anyone at tournaments without flashing a smile. I missed you so much at this past tournemant and I know that Flyball will never be the same without you, Josh.

My Dear Friend Josh and his family:
At STA, we were the best of friends. Our great times together, with all our STA and VIS friends, were countless and I shall forever hold these memories as some of the happiest times of my life. The word of your passing was shocking and so sad. I extend my deepest and heart felt sympathies and condolences to your family. To Jeff, I am so sorry for the loss of your brother who I know meant the world to you. To Joy, you could not have had a finer uncle and know that I am so sorry for your loss. Both of you are in my prayers.
Josh, as you pass to your eternal life in Heaven, just know how much I appreciated your friendship and that you were a person that really made a difference during your lifetime which was way too short. God Bless you my friend and may you rest in peace.

He will be missed by all who knew him. Please know that if we can help you in any way, all you need to do is get word to us. Take care, Kim. You are in our thoughts.

Josh, you were such a great guy. We will miss you but always will picture you as the most handsome, vibrant friendliest, helpful person we could have ever known.

RIP Josh. You will be missed greatly. I will miss our late night conversations over a beer while we were both working late and our occasional opportunities to get out and golf together. Most of all just miss walking by your office and seeing your smile on a daily basis and being able to stop in and chat with you. May God Bless Kim, Jeff and your familes and co-workers to make it through this difficult time.
