I crossed paths with Josh through an online video game called Mindnight. He was the #1 player for the entire time I played the game, which was 3 years. I was in the top 10, so we ended up in a lot of games together. joshua.cunnigham was a very intelligent player, very intuitive, but most importantly he was always a great sport. I was very saddened when I returned to the game and heard about his passing. We never met in person, but you will be missed.

I'm so sad to hear about Joshy, we met in college while he was living near Eastern. He was such a kind, funny, good-hearted person. I visited Joshy when he was living in Cincinnati on my way back from living in Australia. He was a friend I always felt safe around and I have missed him since we last had contact with each other. I'm so sorry for your loss and will be holding Joshy and your family in my heart and thoughts.

Scott,
I am shocked and so very saddened to read about Josh's passing. I remember him as such a good hockey player and teammate of our son Mark during his time with Middlesex Youth hockey. Just an all around great young man. Please know you are in our prayers, and may happy memories of your beloved son guide you through these most difficult times.

Scott, Lisa and family,
I am so greatly sorry for your loss. Josh was a very kind, down to earth and genuine person. In this lifetime, we get to meet too few people like him. I got to know him while he was working at Citgo and got to talk to him quite a bit. He will be sadly missed.

Scott, Lisa, and family. I am so, so sorry to hear of this news. Josh was a wonderful, kind and truly a good person. In this life of ours, we have limited blessings to meet people like him abd unfortunately not enough of people like him. I had the pleasure to see and speak with him often at the gas station. Needless to say, he will be very greatly missed. My condolences and heart go out to both of you, Scott, Lisa and family. He will be in my thoughts and prayers.
