To Joshua’s dear family, I did not know Joshua, but my heart goes out to his family as they continue on their journey of grief. Our 22 year old son, Zack, died in June 2006, and we know the sadness you are feeling. If you ever want to talk with a mom who knows the pain you are going through, you are very welcome to contact me. There is an amazing support group in our area for moms who have lost children and we would be honored to provide you with the support that a grieving mom needs.

Josh many years went by since I last saw you and our paths crossed again and we caught up on past time. It broke my heart when I heard the news and makes me appreciate life so much more.

When I think of you Josh, I see that cute, thick little body just starting to walk, and that cute little face with the biggest dimples I have ever seen. I pray that you are with your dad, watching every baseball game together, having a grand time, and that peace and happiness fill this next phase of your life. Until I see those dimples again, We love you, Tina, Johnny, and Jeremy
