I watched Josh grow up. He was a dear dear friend of my sons Jarod and Travis. He was full of ideas and goals to better himself - and he worked hard to achieve them. I could see his pride. He stayed close as an adult, always finding time for a visit and a chat. I will miss him, we've lost a wonderful person in our lives.
