On March 16, 2014 your life and mine were forever changed. Your loss became mine when on a early Sunday morning I found myself sitting with a young man I had never met before praying and trying to offer words of comfort. It was my strong belief in God and faith that found me on that stretch of road stopping to offer my help to a stranger. I have cried and grieved for your son and brother as I know that you have. It was only recently when I could not bare the heaviness in my heart that I spoke to someone that said to me that even though this young mans life was cut short be comforted in the knowledge that he was not alone and that his last contact was one offered in warmth and love. As each day goes by I remember your son. His face is enblazoned in my mind forever. I truly believe he is an angel now watching over you and your family. I am sorry for your loss and hope that as time goes on your pain will lessen and that knowing he was not alone will bring you some peace. No bond is as great as that between a parent and child. My deepest condolences are with you as you grieve.

God understands the pain of a loved one passing away. But , we must be strong. He tells us that in Joshua 1:9, he also says that because he is with us. How amazing is it to have the strongest person in the entire universe by our side, especially during times like these.

We want you to know how deeply sorry we are to hear of your loss.
Passing time can never dim a son's love or your love for him. Joshua will be with you always. He lives on in the hearts & minds of those he touched.
May all those precious memories give you a special comfort in knowing that your Joshua and all he meant to you will remain in your hearts forever.

To the Deacon Family:
My son, Michael, had the pleasure of sharing a home with Josh for the past three years. He considered him a brother and his best friend. They shared a love for music and spent many hours at Mike's studio in Rockland jamming with friends. He will leave a hole in Mike's life that will be impossible to fill. Thank you for sharing your son with mine. Our very deepest condolences and sympathy go out to you. We will keep you in our prayers.

My sweet Leah, I'm so sorry for your loss, your stories about Josh were always the best. Helpful to me as a teen losing my brother:
Do not stand by my grave and weep,
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry:
I am not there, I did not die. (Mary Elizabeth Frye)
He will live always in your heart and memories. God bless you all.
Love
