Josh Rice

Josh was an awesome guy. I wasn't very close to him, but during the time I did spend with him in high school he left quite an impression. He portrayed the image of a caring, bright, full of integrity and tenacious young man. I pray that God will bring peace and hope to his family.

I am truely sorry to hear about Josh. I was out of town and not able to make it to the funeral.I remember in middle school when Josh and I became best friends. Now I wish we hadnt grown so far apart. Josh had a very big heart and was a great friend. He will always be in my heart. I love you Josh!

I just wanted to tell Josh's whole family I am terribly sorry for your loss, you all will always be in my prayers. I went to St. Leo with him and I'll always remember his wonderful smile. My heart goes out to all of his family and friends.

i can only imagine how you feel at this time. just remember that God has a plan and that everything happens for a reason. Josh was a very promising young man and had a good future ahead of him. you are in my thoughts and prays. may God bless you.

Josh, It will never be the same at our homes when we get together to have a cookout or celebrate a holiday. Just to pass you on your way to where ever you were going & have you wave & smile - small things like this will be missed very much. YOU KNOW YOU ARE LOVED BY US ALL! Untill we meet again my young nephew I will make a Flag Cake just for you! love you!, Aunt Doris Jean.

I did not have the chance to get to know personally Josh. But from what I have been told from friends that knew him he was the kind of friend everyone needed in their lives. I am greatly sorry for your loss and will keep your family in my prayers. Just know that each and every day Josh is watching down from above and one day again you will meet.

We are so sorry for your loss. Josh was a fine young man and will be missed by many. Our entire family was out of town this week so we missed the viewing.

This is a favor verse of mine:

I shall not stand at your grave and weep;
I know you're not there, you're not asleep.
You're the soft summer breezes that blow;
The diamond glitter on the freshly fallen snow.
You're the gentle Autumn's rain;
The warm sun on my window pane.
...

I grew up with Sam, and Josh was my little buddy at church. Thank You for the opportunity to know such a sweet young man. My family and I will keep you and your family in our prayers. Josh has forever touched the lives of those who got to meet him, and will always have a place in their hearts. God be with you!

I mostly remember Josh from my son's baseball days. Since Sunday morning though, I've seen how special he was. My house has been filled with many of his classmates and friends with their pained expressions, tears, and yes, frustrations over such an untimely loss. Mark and family,,,,know how much Josh was admired and respected. He had more admiration and friends than most of us have in a lifetime. I can say nothing now to quell the pain you are feeling. No one knows how you...
