Joshua Behn passed away unexpectedly on August 2, 2025. He was born on April 23, 1987.  Josh grew up in Groveport, and was a graduate of Groveport Madison High School. 

Those who knew Josh best would describe him as being a free spirit. Always the life of the party, he loved being surrounded by family and friends. He enjoyed spending his free time catching a movie, going to the beach, or attending a concert. Like everyone, Josh faced his own challenges in life, but the one thing he was always most proud of was his son, Benjamin.

Josh was preceded in death by his grandmothers, Joyce and Rita. He is survived by his son, Ben; his parents, Quintin and Angie; his siblings, Jordan and Abby; his grandfather, Tom; and many aunts, uncles, and cousins.

It was Josh’s wish to be cremated. At this time, no funeral is planned, as his family has chosen to grieve their loss privately. A celebration of life may be held in the near future.
