Not sure what to say?

Another year passes and I still remember you and Laura often. Miss you more than can be expressed and still think of you every time I fly. I feel you with me and often touch the parts in my plane that came from yours. You will always be with me in spirit. Good friends are forever.

It just doesn't seem like it was that long ago. Josh was a great friend and I think of him often. You will not be forgotten Josh. I miss you my friend.

How can it possible have been so long since we lost Josh. I think of him and Laura often and miss my friend so much. The restoration of his plane is moving forward and she will be a true monument to his love of flying and in particular of his Taylorcraft.

Josh was one our finest pilots at Southwest Airlines. We commuted together to our base in Baltimore from RDU. My brother Ed Camp, also SWA pilot, says he and Josh shared a crash pad in Chicago when they were both temporarily based there. I was a Flight Attendant, now retired. I'm sure Josh would have enjoyed celebrating Southwest's 50th anniversary even in these challenging times. Respects, Chuck Umstead

Hard to believe it's been 10 years. Spread your wings and fly high josh. You will never be forgotten.

I cannot believe it has been 9 years, I originally heard while at Airventure in Oshkosh. Josh was an internet and phone friend with a common love of Taylorcraft airplanes. I have a couple of his instrument panel placards and one of his throttle knobs in my Taylorcraft. It is hard to forget him with these wonderful reminders.

Josh, my friend, i miss you. You were a shining light in this world. I think of you and cant help but smile. Rest in peace my old 1900 bud.
