Joshua had an amazing spirit and obvious love for his son and life. He will be sorely missed at CalPERS. The pride he took in his work was a true expression of him personally. I only knew him briefly doing project work but we both shared the love of preparing and sharing food with our co-workers. Rest in Peace with Your Lord and Savior.

Cherishing fond memories of my dear friend Josh. There will always be a very special place in my heart for this young man, who started with CalPERS as a student and grew into this amazing father, friend and faithful public servant to all those he served. Josh always greeted you with a great big hug and smile. You will be missed by all.
