The moment Josh came into our lives, he instantly connected with our entire family, especially both of my boys. Wes (14) will always remember going through the corn mazes, the haunted house (even though Josh wasn't a fan of the dark), and spending time together! He misses Josh so dearly.
Hayden (4) was Josh's biggest fan! Anytime he saw Josh, he would light up whether that be in person or on FaceTime. Josh was Hayden's best friend and believe me, he made sure his aunt Karmen knew that! Hayden will always cherish the memories with Josh, playing outside with the soccer ball, talking about all the spooky things, and getting to know each other.
Tim and I will definitely miss Josh. We'll miss the small talks, the football games, the jokes, the future planning, and most importantly the way Josh made Karmen the happiest she's ever been.
We are so incredibly heartbroken and will forever hold a place in our hearts for him.
Sincerely,
Tim, Kirstin, Wesley, and Hayden
