Josh was born in Carrollton, Georgia on July 11, 1997, the son of Pierce Thrower Waldrep and Karen Elizabeth Guynn Waldrep.
Josh was a 2016 graduate of Carrollton High School. He worked in the athletic department operations building at the University of West Georgia and was a member of Carrollton First United Methodist Church. He was an avid horseman, enjoyed hunting, golfing, and was a diehard fan of the Carrollton Trojans, UWG Athletics and Georgia Bulldogs. Josh never met a stranger and was loved by many for his infectious smile and joy of life.
Survivors include his parents, P.T. and Karen Waldrep; sister, Elle Waldrep; maternal grandparents, Richard and Marie Guynn; paternal grandmother, Carolyn Waldrep; Aunts and Uncles, Christy and Greg Denney, and Joe and Sandi Adams; and cousins Anna Denney, Brandon Kennedy, Megan Wolski, and Blake Kennedy, Klayden Kennedy, and Kanaan Wolski; and many other family and friends. He was preceded in death by his paternal grandfather, Coleman Waldrep.
The family would like to express their thanks to nurse Savannah Taylor, Tanner ICU, for her exceptional care and support.
The family will receive friends in the fellowship hall of Carrollton First United Methodist Church on Saturday, November 19 from Noon until 2 p.m. Funeral service will follow the visitation in the sanctuary of Carrollton First United Methodist Church at 2 p.m., with Rev.
