Not sure what to say?

Dearest "Josh" I never got to meet you in person only through private messages but I felt I knew you. I will never forget your kind words and gift to my brother "Daniel" after his brain surgery. I will always remember your BEAUTIFUL words which kept me going through such a difficult time. You will always have a place in my heart.

In my graduate school days in Santa Cruz, Josh always helped me with my interlibrary loans. He was always very kind. Hard to imagine a life so quickly lost. May he rest in peace and may his family heal.

Always thinking of you. Youre a true friend for life and Im trying to spread your goodness. Youre living on in others without a doubt. Wish you were here, but that you were actually here gives me some peace. Thanks for being my honest friend.

Although I knew him very briefly, Josh was a very kind person to work with at the library. Even when I got laid off, he offered to see what other positions were there. He and I loved to talk about music and bikes. One thing I regret was not saying goodbye when I moved back home after I graduated. Finding out about his death a month afterwards really got to me. Sometimes I still think about him. He was a good person to know. He was definitely an essential part of my experience when I lived in...
