I met Josh 3 years ago when he did some work at my place. He was always good to come out when I had a plumbing problem and had a good understanding of how to fix things. I was so impressed with his good character and feel that our community has lost one of the good ones.
May God bless and comfort his friends and family. This was a huge unexpected loss.

I’ve been struggling to find the words after I found out you have left us dear friend. I think often about how you worked for and with me on the many projects we had. We had so many fun times and laughs on so many things. But, one of my most special memories was the honor I had to be at your Army Basic Training graduation. I remember the incredible pride I had walking out on the field to claim you. I will miss you dear friend and I will always carry you in my heart forever..

I had the honor of meeting Josh through my work place. He was one of the sweetest and most respectful young men I have ever known. He had the most infectious smile that could light up a room. He will be missed so much!!
