There are know words, I'm so sorry for your loss, young man with he's life ahead of him. Depression is very hard to live with I have it for years. My condolences to the family. Sending Prayers

Nancy and family, I am so sorry for your loss. I will be keeping you and your family in my thoughts and prayers.

Scott and family, I am so sorry to learn of the loss of your son. My family also knows the pain of losing a loved one to depression. You are in my thoughts and prayers. May you Rest In Peace Josh, you are no longer in pain.

No words to express the grief I feel for my dear friend Nancy and her family in this terribly difficult time. His memory video showed Josh had a wonderful life and was clearly very loved. His struggles were no ones fault including his own and very sadly at way too young an age he lost his internal struggle. Hopefully over time the happy memories and blessed little moments will help ease the pain. Rest In Peace Josh. With much love, Candice

I am very sorry for your loss. My heart aches for you. Hold on to every memory. I lost my son at 20 years old. That was 26 years ago on May 15, 94. May the Lord hold you all close. Prayers for everyone of you. You won't believe this now and it takes time but it will get easier. From Rose's friend Deanna. Hugs!

Aunt Nancy, Uncle Scott, and Joel
