Joshua G. Howard

I will miss you Josh. So very much. I will always remember all the great times we spend together, laughing and crying and just being plain silly. Love always Mags.

Dear Sita, Matt, Zack, and Reiley

I know all too well the heartache you are feeling right now. The only comfort I find in this is knowing that Josh is now at peace. Josh was such a good friend of the family. I would give anything to hear his laugh or see his piercing blue eyes again. Josh will be missed. Please let us know if there is anything we can do for you.

We were deeply saddened to hear of the tragic death of Josh. The loss of these young lives is very difficult to understand or to accept. Josh was a dear friend to our boys, Meade and Ron. We will keep all of you in our prayers and continue to pray that God will get you through the difficult days ahead. I pray you find comfort in knowing that Josh and Brian are in heaven together resting in peace and that many people loved those boys. God bless. The Sparrow Family

To the family and friends of Joshua G. Howard: I am very sorry to hear of your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Sita, Matt, Zach & Riley,
My heart breaks to know the saddness and loss you are going through. I am so sorry for your loss and am here if you need anything. Josh was a great guy & will be dearly missed. May you one day find comfort in knowing that his saddness over the loss of Brian is no longer. Decker and Howard will be waiting to welcome us all home.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time. God Bless your family.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome...

I am so sorry for your loss. Brian will take Josh under his wing and they will be remembered and in our hearts forever. Josh was loved by many and a great person.

My deepest sympathy goes out to you & your family. Josh was a very close & dear friend to my nephew, Brian Decker, who we lost two years ago. It all seems so senseless but God has His reasons. We just need to continue to have faith and prayer that all our suffering serves a purpose. My thoughts & prayers will be with you.
