Joshua Green Obituary

Joshua Steven Green Oct. 21, 1989 - June 4, 2020 Joshua Steven Green passed unexpectedly leaving a hole in the hearts of those who loved him. Josh was born and raised in Stockton, CA. He graduated from Bear Creek High School and attended Delta College. He was a proud veteran of the Army National Guard serving six years as an MP and Investigator. His passions were foreign cars, traveling, golf, and sport shooting. He was curious, smart and articulate from an early age; he liked to debate and could talk himself into or out of almost anything. He was an avid reader who loved novels and history. He liked nice clothes, shoes, watches, and sunglasses, and he always looked his best. He had a sharp wit and was fiercely loyal to those he loved. He never turned away from an opportunity to help friends or family. He lovingly cared for his elderly grandmother until his untimely death. Josh is survived by his parents Richard (Dick) and Marilyn Green, his German Shepard Ranger, his grandmother's (Ruby) Jewel Green and Judy Stoeppel, his many grants and gruncles, aunts and uncles, cousins, and great cousins. He is preceded in death by his grandfather's James Green, Cletus (Butch) Stoeppel and Leonard E. Stevens. Now that Josh's soul is in heaven and he is at peace his body will be cremated (Tulip Cremations) and his ashes scattered. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic no public service will be had at this time. A Celebration of his Life will be held later this summer when friends and family can come together to share memories, handshakes, hugs, and food and drink to celebrate the life of this remarkable young man.

I'm glad you're with me, we knew what was coming, shared hearts, and I got many the chance to tell you and did. Still love you Josh, always.

Brother. I will never forget our heated golf battles and our talks about life and the service. The first time you came up to the tee box barefoot still cracks me up just thinking about it. It led me to start taking off my shirt on the tee box when it was hot. Anything to get you to laugh and as tough as it was to do so, it was a beautiful thing. I'm sorry I missed your last call, I'm truly bummed out that we couldn't get that last convo in.

He was my best friend all throughout elemtary school and used to live right around the corner from each other. We loved watching Batman and playing with our action figures we got and who had the better ones! He was always there for me and we ended up talking 3 days before his death... that will always weigh heavy on my heart, he was a great guy and I'll miss him a lot. Rest easy Josh, until we meet again.

Josh was a fine young man and a credit to the uniform he wore.
I can't think of a time when he didn't make me laugh--even when I didn't want to. He never failed to greet me and always went out of his way to help me whenever I asked for it without expecting anything in return except for a handshake.
So with that being said, 'Greeney' (as I referred to him in the military) I want you to know that if I owe you a beer, when I find you in Heaven, I will gladly allow YOU to buy me another ;-) .

I miss you bro

I remember him in Kindergarten and Cub Scout, actually all the way through high school with my son Eddie like it was yesterday. I’m so sorry to hear this news. He was such a friendly lighthearted little boy. My heart goes out to his parents ❤

I served with Josh, we didn't always agree on things but he was a good dude and never did or said anything with any ill intent. The last time we spoke we were talking about a business opportunity, possibly a partnership. Unfortunately it never was able to come into fruition. We'll miss you Josh, love you brother.

Dick & Marilyn,
I am so, so sorry for your great loss. I am reading a book called heaven and it is so detailed about what beauty and peace that is there with the Lord, I hope that brings you comfort knowing he is happy and safe until you meet up with your son again, where there is no more pain or sorrow. Prayers and Love.

Josh my nephew was the light of Marilyn and Dick's life it so tragic that he passed at such an early age.
My heart is so full of sadness for them.
We will always remember the little boy that wanted to move to Montana with his cousin Ron when they grew up via train where no girls were allowed.
RIP Josh
