Happy birthday Buddy miss you and think of you often. Lookkk ok g forward to seeing you again one day hopefully not to soon but one day when it´s time. You are missed by me and many.!!


I am so extreamly gutted by the loss if my friend and buddy. I really missed our yearly call on our birthday this year. I can still hear him with his signature rhapsy voice just saying OSCARrrrrrrrr What's up my man Happy Birthday !!!! Oscarrrrr..... I will miss him do very much and only could wish to have been blessed by his presence one last time. Josh was larger than life and was truly one if the most intriguing and original people I have had the pleasure to cross paths with. I hope he is looking down at us or up at us and is at peace knowing how much he was loved and will be missed. Hopefully we will meet again in another life. RIP Siegellll......... I will always be smiling when remembering you and will be missing you bro.

There are no words that can describe the sadness and devastation I feel upon learning of the loss of my old friend Josh. Memories continue to fill my brain of the one who so affectionately referred to me as his Snuffy. Though we hadn't spoke in years his influence has always and will continue to shape me as a person in all aspects of my life.

Snuf, they broke the mold when they made you. Hope you are at peace.
