Zahira's Graduation

Kindness is what I think of when I think about Josh. I am reminded on how many times he has helped me and my fiance (Zahira's brother) when we moved back here in The Desert. He happily helped renovate the Flores' family ancestral home and even one time reserved a parking spot for us during Zahira's busy graduation. He was thoughtful and he made my sister-in-law happy. He was a great cat dad to Koa and loved seeing them play together. I will never forget the time he sat down next to me on the couch and gave me advice on how to talk to my future mother-in-law. I was really touched and he eased my nerves that day. Josh was an amazing person. He will be missed. Rest in peace Josh.
