Joshua Joseph Gude

I am deeply saddened to learn of Josh's passing. Lately, I had been wondering how my long lost friend had been doing and just wanted to reach out and reconnect - say hi, make sure he was happy. However, I found out last night that I won't be able to do so. We were such wonderful friends in the early 90's. I remember always feeling safe, at peace, full of joy, and loved around Josh. Just thinking of him now makes me smile. I can only take solice in knowing that God is taking care of him...

You were a good friend for the short time I knew you, May God Bless You

I was very sorry to hear about Josh's passing. We became very close when I moved to Florida years ago. We have not kept in touch as much as I would of liked over the years but I still consider him a very dear friend. Josh, Moose, Jeff and I were inseperable for a time. He will be missed by all who knew him.

My deepest sympathy and heartfelt loss goes out to John and Jennifer, sisters Jill and Jamie and loving brother Justin Gude for their loss of beloved Joshua. I remember Josh as a young boy, full of life and energy, teasing the world around him and looking for the grand response. Joshua, you have left us too young and will be missed by all who knew you and loved you.

My prayers go out to the the Gude Family, as I miss all of you too.

We here at Furniture Country will truly miss Josh. He brought such positive spirit to our family. He cared about his fellow co-workers and his customers.
Our love and prayers go to him and his family.

Josh was not only a first class gentleman, but a fun loving co worker to me. I could always count on his expertise and kind words to make it through the day. He will be missed terribly as a friend and fellow worker

Dear Gude family,
I first want to say how sorry I am for your loss. My mom called me yesterday and told me what had happened. I was so stuned, I didn't know what to say. All I could do was remember when I moved to gainesville. I was 10 and It was in the middle of the school year. Josh and I became friends. As time passed he truely became my best friend. He was one of the nicest people I have ever known. And I'm so sad that he is gone.

Our hearts and condolences go out to you Gail and Joshua's whole family. We never had the chance to meet Josh but we know he had to be a wonderful young man for you to have loved him so. Please know you and Joshua's family are in our thoughts and prayers. May God be with you all during this very sad time.

When my husband and I first moved to Gainesville, Josh was the one who showed us around. He took us to see the Springs, hunt for shark teeth, see aligators, and all the neat stuff Florida had to offer. We will always cherish every moment that was ever spent with Josh.
