Sweet Josh, I will forever treasure our times together. I will never forget your long beautiful hair and the way that you played the guitar and sang like it just came so easy to you! So jelly! The memories from Knotts Scary farm with all of us laughing and joking around, to getting the scrapbook ready for the family reunion for papa and nana and one of my favorite memories of the Stampede with you and your mom and Alyssa and Ariana lol. You were so funny and easy to talk to! You brought so much life and light everywhere you went and truly brought Joy no matter the Situation! I love you little cuz and will miss you and our conversations terribly! Enjoy the presence of Jesus and know that I can´t wait to join you one day in heaven!

About 15 years ago, I recall with joy watching our son, also named Joshua, jump on a trampoline with Joshua, John Michael, and Annah in the Reicherts backyard in Arizona. But what really impacted me was more recently, after a gap in time, James and I got reunited and so did our kids, now grown into adults. It especially touched my heart when my Joshua connected with Joshua who was easy to talk to, especially about Marvel, full of life, teasing and fun, open and sincere. The love of Jesus they shared made an instant and permanent connection. I'm so grateful that this bigger than life example for my son is only absent for now and that one day, my Joshua will get to see his "cuz" and hang out for all eternity. Thank you, Joshua. You touched many more hearts than you'll ever know. Blessings, condolences, and love to the family.

Josh was such a kind soul and it was a pleasure knowing him thank you for all the laughs Josh

The very best friend a kid could ask for. Love you and miss you.

I am so sorry for your loss. I had the privilege of knowing Joshua since he was a young boy growing up in Faribault. Ellie and I used to babysit him before we had our own kids, and I remember how much fun he was, and very curious about the world around him, as small as it was at that time. He was a fun kid, and very rambunctious. Such a lovable little guy. When the Reichert´s moved to Arizona, we stayed in touch from afar. It was fun to see all of the kids grow up to become such amazing young adults. Joshua came to visit us in Rochester a few years back, and this was when we were able to reconnect. Although we hadn´t seen each other much for years, we made an immediate re-connection through music and our love for the outdoors. My son Jackson, Joshua and I took an epic hike in Whitewater State Park, and Joshua left an impression on all of us, and made such a positive impact on my kids and our family. We missed him when he had to go home, but have such good memories of the time we spent together. Now seeing and hearing about how he grew up into a kind, creative and devoted man of God brings joy and of course such sadness that he isn´t with us anymore. I am so sorry we couldn´t spend more time together in this life and hurt for the Reichert family. Until we meet again Joshua, I know you will continue your sweet songs to the Lord, and I look forward to seeing you again. With much love, Sam.

Even though we were not very close, I could tell that you were a Great Human Being. Thank you Josh , you will always be remembered.
