Josh was born January 21, 1986, in Carbondale, Illinois. Josh attended Goreville High School and served as a US Marine for four years. Josh was a beloved son and brother.

Josh is survived by his daughters Cameron and Kadynce; parents George and Carol; brother Seibert; sister-in-law Ellie; and nieces Hazel and Mable.
