Me and Josh became friends on Facebook almost 13 years ago and had the honors of playing guitar with him back in highschool days was the only personal time iv ever had with him. But I've always reacted and commented on posts from fur meets, he always brought smiles to peoples faces and was always out going and pushed for others to be happy. I wish I got to know him as well as all the other friends, you will be missed buddy!
Fly high, and find the peace you was looking for

I met Josh when I was visiting Cate and Zac. I had met Josh before at the furry bowling meet but never got close. It wasn't until I started coming around his area that I started to get to know him.

I was looking forward to adding him as a friend. I knew things were rough for him but he never really said how rough. I gave him support and comfort where I could.

My first memory of him is when he came to a yard sale of mine and I learned that he was a local mascot enthusiast like myself he had the best personality the best sense of humor he was absolutely a wonderful person and I'm glad I got to meet him that day and our friendship has lasted since 2015
