Joshua Carr Obituary

Joshua Lee Carr

Nottingham, NH — Joshua Lee Carr, 51, passed away unexpectedly at home on January 4, 2022. He was born on June 30, 1970, in Springfield, Ma.

He is survived by his beloved children Ruby, Rowan, Luke and Lydia Carr of Nottingham, NH; his mother Nancy Carr of Belmont, NH; his father Bill Carr and step-mother Karin of Henniker, NH; his former wife, Heather Gilson Carr of Nottingham, NH; his sister Alison Walsh, her husband Jim Walsh and their children, Shayla, Liam and Zoey of Sunapee, NH; his sister Katherine Carr of Henniker, NH; his nephew Jacob Carr of Belmont, NH; niece Cadence Bernard of Boscawen, NH and many aunts, uncles and cousins.

He attended Henniker elementary school, graduated Hopkinton High School, and received a BA in Philosophy from UNH Durham in 1992.

Josh had a great passion for the outdoors, hiking, camping, (especially at Hermit Island, Maine), and alpine skiing. He would extend winter skiing by trekking into Tuckerman Ravine where he could often be found skiing well into summer. He was a loyal Boston Red Sox fan. He enjoyed playing and listening to music, especially heavy metal.

Josh's greatest joy was being involved in the lives of his four children, Ruby, Rowan, Luke, and Lydia, all of Nottingham, NH. He was a proud and encouraging parent, attending all their activities, coaching their sports teams, and going to their school events. He taught all his kids to ski at a very early age and shared with them his love for camping, music and reading. Josh dedicated his energies towards his children's development and was eternally proud of them.

As were his wishes, there will be no visiting hours. Cremation accommodations are being handled by Brewitt Funeral home. Please visit their website at brewittfuneralhome.com to leave a comment or post a picture.

The family will be having a private gathering at 2pm on Sunday, the 16th, and in the spring, there will be an open celebration of life at a place loved dearly by Josh.

I am heartbroken to learn of Josh's passing. We met in 2nd grade and he was my best friend in high school. I have so many fond memories from so many years ago. We reconnected by phone in recent years and I am thankful to have spoken to him just after xmas. We never did get to reconnect in person as we talked about. What is left of my heart goes out to his family. I am so very sorry for his loss. My thoughts are with you.

I am better for having known Josh, better for learning from his guidance, better for having gained his friendship. The world will not be the same and I will miss our almost daily conversations about life, family, sports, music, politics and (occasionally) work.
