My deepest sympathies Chris and Reba. It is so hard to believe! I am sorry that we did not have the pleasure of knowing Josh as a young man. He was certainly a little bundle of energy as a little boy. Just think, Charles can spend some time with him now! I am sure he was waiting with open arms when Josh entered heaven's gates. I am sorry for the sorrow left for you guys though. We still think of you often and love you. Wish we were closer and could help in some way. We send our love and deepest sympathy.

I was so sorry to hear about Josh, I will always remember all of you. It's hard to believe the person you were so close to when you were younger is gone. But one thing is for sure I'll never forget the fun we had together,and the way Josh would call me "Anner June" because he could not say Andrea. My thoughts and Prayers will always be with yall. I'm Sorry. I send all my love to all of you. Andrea Bowdle Mercer "Anner June"

I am so sorry for your loss. Josh was a great guy. He was funny, nice, and sweet. He graduated with me at Montgomery County High School. We wasn't really that close but him and my best friend, Susan Hancock, were like brother and sister. Josh will be missed greatly. Once again, I am so sorry.
