Josiah Merrell

Plese accept our condolences for the most tragic loss that parents can suffer; that of a child.

Josiah was such a handsome and bright young man. He loved break things just so he could put them back together. We would watch him outside our window working on cars till all hours of the night. He helped us many times either fixing our computer or cleaning our gutters. When Marty had his heart attack Josiah would run errands and drive Marty to appts. We will miss his smile, his sense of humor and his friendship. May God bless and comfort his family.

I met Josiah briefly while visiting his wonderful grandmother, my good friend, Betty Kennedy...Josiah was polite and sweet. When Betty spoke about Josiah her face lit up...she was so very proud of her grandson. I know this is a very painful time for Betty and her family...my heart,thoughts and prayers are with Josiah and his family in this very sad time and always.

My condolences go out to the family and close friends of Josiah. He was such a smart man and had many things going for him. I want to let the family know that they have the prayers of many students and faculty at Pensacola Christian College praying for them. Don't give up on God; He will NEVER give up on you!

Josiah was a funny person. I grew up with him and his brother chris. Although we losted contact he still came around. Family and friends are all sad but he is in a place where there will be no more worries or plans.. Josiah is away from us now but not to far he will always be in our hearts!

I didn't personally know him, but we crossed paths almost daily at work. I knew him to be quiet, polite and very neat in appearance. Seemed like a nice young man. I was sorry to hear about the tragedy. My family will keep him and your family in our prayers.

Please accept my deepest sympathies.
