Joshua Kent Knobloch, 33, of Tempe, Arizona, passed away unexpectedly on February 17, 2026.

Joshua brought light and joy into our lives from the moment he was born. He was known for his kind heart, adventurous spirit, quick wit, and determination. He loved music, writing, UFC fights, and spending time with his dog Rhea.

Joshua is survived by his mother, DeAnna Della Cioppa; his father, Brian Knobloch (Tammie); his two sisters, Brooke and KaylieKnobloch; and many others who loved him deeply. He was preceded in death by his brother, Jordan Knobloch.

In lieu of flowers, the family suggests donations to AFSO or acts of kindness in his memory.

To his family, friends, and those who have crossed paths with Jay,

I'm truly and deeply sorry for your loss. I met Jay five years ago and my life has changed for the better because of him. He was ambitious, resilient, and kind. I got to see him grow as a person and achieve the goals he had set his mind to. He pushed through many obstacles and kept a positive outlook on life. His heart was kind and generous as he helped not only his friends but random strangers as well.

I will cherish all my memories with Jay and all the adventures we shared. He was a friend, a leader and a teacher. He held me when I cried, gave direction when needed, and taught me one of the greatest lessons in life - to be authentically yourself.

I'm heartbroken that his time here on earth was cut short, but I hope he finds enternal love and above all else, peace in the afterlife.

I will always love you,
Squishy
