Joshua Willis Obituary
Joshua was more than just my brother, he was my protector, my light, my constant. His kindness wasn't just a trait, it was his entire soul. He chose joy, chose hope, and never used his past as an excuse. Most people would never have known the challenges he'd overcome, because he carried himself with such strength and grace. He had this incredible ability to walk into any situation and make it better, to lift people up when they were down.
When someone needed help, Joshua was there no questions asked. His heart was so big it could never turn away someone in need. He'd work harder than anyone, fight for those he loved, and do whatever it took to bring a smile to your face. Those weren't just words for him; they were a way of living.
His love ran deep and true. He could transform the darkest moments into something bearable, even beautiful, with his infectious laugh and unbreakable spirit. No matter what life threw at us, he'd be right there making sure I was okay, standing up for me, holding us together.
He might have been my 'little' brother in age, but he was always bigger than life - larger than anyone could imagine in spirit, in love, in protection. My little big brother: smaller in years, but gigantic in heart. Joshua didn't just live life; he embraced it with every fiber of his being.
