God walked with Josh, he is doing fine. For those of us left behind remember Jesus has said: "I promise you I'm always there when your heart is filled with sadness and despair. I'll carry you when you need a friend, you'll find my foot prints in the sand". Always keep the Faith! Pam Lawless

Happy Birthday Josh! At 5:55 a.m. 30 years ago you made me the happiest mom ever. I still can't believe you are not here, I think about you every day and miss you more than you will know. You would have been 30 today and you could have shared that with your new niece. It was meant to be that she was born on your birthday. My pain will never go away, but I know you are in peace. I Love you and miss you Josh, and I will honor you today on your birthday. Love you forever, Mom

You were too good to be gone so soon. I know you have peace now, I wish I new how to get that too and not hurt everyday. Everday I wake up it still doesn't seem real. I will love you always and keep you in my heart and all the memories.

Who could have known that our time together would seem so short ... for years it seems that I saw you every day ... now I read how much you are missed... Hear Brit & Tony talk about how it still does not seem real...Your Mother , well there are no words for the absence that comes to a Mother's heart when a child leaves them... Charles , Jake & Travis.. sometimes I look at them and I know that I can only imagine their loss...
But your ABBA FATHER desired you HOME.. it was time to go..

This weekend my grandson (almost 3 yrs old) met someone new who was very nice to him and played with him.. so he called him Josh.
We of course corrected him but he associated nice young men who play with him with his memory of Josh.

Josh, I came across this poem I gave you and your brothers and you still had it. It reminds me everyday of how wonderful you were and I want you to know I miss you so much and think of you every day.
Love, Mom
My Son . . . I Lied!

Before you were conceived,
I dreamed about you …
Before you were born,
I longed to hold you …
After I held you in my arms just one minute,
I knew I would gladly die for you.

Now you amaze me
With your strength and resilience,
Astound me with your depth and understanding
And touch me with your kindness and compassion,
You’re everything I ever wanted my son to be.

I always said that one day
I would let you go …

I lied!
I’m never letting go!

I love you my son …
Forever, for always and no matter what.

As my heart grows weaker, every single day.
with you here our family was bright and sunny, now your gone we are all grey.
I'm so numb inside, happiness i cannot show.
I just need to see you, and just hear one more OH!
I know you went through hard times,never phased you.
Always held held your head high, and asked ''what can i do.
To make your life better,need me to go get some beer''.
Or stick up for you, with not even an ounce of fear.
Your the happiest person i know,must have got that from mother.
Now i need to know,how to live without you brother.
And now here i sit, in the house where we live.
Needing you to do what you do, Give Give Give.
I love you more, than words could ever explain.
Even when theres clear skies, in my heart there is rain.
I know you would never want us,to feel this way.
Your only gone in person,in our hearts you always stay.
Doing anything i can,to keep my mind off what went on that night.
Knowing you left us too quick,without a chance to fight.
It hurts to move ,much less mow the lawn.
And what hurts the most,no matter what i do your still gone.
I could write all day and night, about the things we did.
Or how you never got ahead, or you'll never meet my kid.
We're all soo close, closer than anyone i know.
But i never felt closer to anyone, than i did to you bro.
Last thing you told me was happy b-day,you even sang me the song.
Coming straight from your heart, like you've done all along.
I guess we have to deal with this, the best way that we can.
I just dont feel right inside,going on without you man!
Sometimes i space out,prayingthat you are alright.
Most the time at home, when your not there everynight.
I love you so much,i pray that you knew.
How much you mean to me,you are one of the few.
Family and close friends, thats who has my heart.
It feels as if my life has ended,now i have to make a new start.
Josh you are my strength, you helped me so much.
Fixed my weedeater, with just one touch.
We would smoke out back, you always through darts if ony for a few.
I would ask you for a smoke, you would always give me two.
You would work on my tools,the damage was miner.
And i really miss coming in the door, and hearing an OH from the recliner.
This house willnever be the same,your such a big part of my life.
I was looking forward to you being here,when i asked leah to be my wife.
Im glad you'll never have to feel, the way i felt when they knocked on our door.
Felt like my life had just ended, as i lost strength and hit the floor.
They asked if you lived here, showed a picture and asked was it you.
All i could think was , what did you do.
did they pull you over,did they arrest my bro.
If so how much is his bond to get out, i gotta go.
Little did i know, you'd been gone for 3 hours.
Now in your place, we have memories and flowers.
You will always be alive,in my heart and in my mind.
That piece of my heart thats gone, i willnever find.
So as i end this poem, only a piece i shared.
cant stop thinking of you josh, your the person that ALWAYS cared.

i love you so much josh and i miss you like something i have never felt before in my life. i just cant wait to see you bro i just want to hang out man ill see you later!

Crystal May

August 13, 2008

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man."

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

IF ONLY
If only I could bring you back
a million times I would.
If only I could see your smile,
that made us feel so good.
If only I could see your face then maybe, I could feel complete.
If only I could feel your touch it might bring some relief.
If only I could have a moment to talk to you again, I would tell you how my world is empty, without you my friend.
If only you could hear the tears that fall each and every day,
I can almost hear you say "Cheer Up Man, Its Okay."
If only I could tell you how your friends and family They're so lonely.
If only, If only, If only

Mr. and Mrs. Tucker. My name is Sharonda Lawrence and I am one of the first people on the scene of your son's traggic accident. I first want to express my deepest sympathy for you and your family. I can't say that I know what you feel but my heart is broken for your loss. Even more so after reading all the wonderful comments about Joshua. I was there with him, praying for him and asking God to save him and give him comfort. I'm not sure he could hear me physically but I believe he could spiritually. There was also another lady who was saying prayers in Spanish. I just want you to know that your Josh was not alone. My sister and my daughter were there also. I don't believe that Joshua suffered that night and I know he heard the words of prayer. I hope my words will bring some comfort to you. May God continue the bless and keep you and your family. BIG THUMBS UP TO JOSH!!!!! I did not know him but yet I feel a connection to him. Blessings!

Josh,
its closing in on 1 month since you have left us physically, it is so hard not only for me to deal with it but it makes it even harder to watch crystal suffer the way she does because you meant so much to her. when i asked you to be a part of my wedding i asked you because i think that you are one of the most loyal and respectfull friends that i have. i asked you because you very well could have been my best man. you showed so much love to every one you came in contact with. man i never thought that the night you came clear across town to give me a ride to work would be the last time i would see you. man i cant describe how much i just wish you would just show up to my house if it was only for me to hear you say OH!!!! Remember our crazy trip to daytona HA!HA! we had some good times together and i am so happy that i got the chance to be friends with such a great person like you. i miss you josh so so so much and i cant wait for the day when you open up the gates for me. i made a memorial sign for you yeah i know you read it sorry that the fireworks werent all that great. but i knew that night that you were in a better place. Crystal and I love you josh and always will. Ill write you back soon. P.S. YES JOSH YOU CAN HAVE THE LAST ONE!!!!! IF YOU GIVE ME A CHECK!!!!!

WOW, it's been 18 days since you were stollen from the world and every day Im still woundering why? Why you? Why now? Just WHY? You were a best friend to a lot of people and for 20 years, one of those people was Josh W, my husband for 12yrs. So I grew pretty close to you over those years. You were like a brother, you were great to mine and Josh's 3 boys. They loved you, just like all kids did. We were always waiting for you to have your own because you would have been the best Dad. I know that you are looking in to our lives every day now and saying Awwwwhhhhh! And probably laughing at all of us saying "We should not be so sad but to be happy and to remember me when I was happy and full of life." When all of this happened it made me think about so much in life, like how i didnt always tell my Josh that I loved him every time that he would leave in his truck, or I would yell too much at my kids, or not tell my best friend how much that I love her. Now I make sure that every one that is a part of my life knows that I LOVE THEM! Beause tomarrow is not promised to any one. Well now i've gotta go but you will forever be with me in my heart.~*~ R~I~P JLC

Josh~
Son, I can't explain the pain and emptiness I feel inside from your passing. You were 10 yrs old when I began dating your mom. It wasn't easy to enter a family as tight as yours, but you made it easier because you accepted me. I watched you grow into quite the man. I have so so many wonderful memories you have left me. I loved and treated you as my very own and now my heart aches now as if you were. I am glad we were able to spend some time together the last 6 months in Georgia and working together. I am glad I told you how much I loved you and how proud I was of you. Again, you have made it easier for me by being a Great & Wonderful Son. I miss you Awwww I'll see you again Son.

Josh well it was been almost two weeks now but it feels like forever.. I miss you so much. I just keep thinking that you are going to just walk into my front door while I am cooking dinner and say OH!! I just cant believe that we have to spend the rest of our lives without you. You were truly one of my best friend and my life feels so empty with out you. I know that we will see each other again but to me that isnt good enough. As I have read some of these entries I see that you were as good of friend to me as everyone eles. Your mom told me that day that everyone you ever met loved you right away and that is true. This is has been the hardest two weeks of my life and all I can say now is Josh I love you sooo much and miss you even more. Until I see you again watch over us all that love you just like you have been since I have know you... Happy Birthday Josh!!!

I'm really sad to know Josh is gone. He was a sweet person and a good guy. I had a great time playing pool with him on Christmas 2006, hanging out like we were back in high school with our friends Jessica and David. Josh always seemed geniunely happy. He will be missed.

I dont know how to start this, but I guess I will start with your words........Well ahhhh basically.........O. That didnt help, now I'm just crying more. I met you at Ruby Tuesdays and I was your most favorite bartender. You would come in towards the end of the night and even though you were winding down from your day, you were the highlight of mine. We would just sit and talk about life and what each of us were going through, and you always made me feel better. You were so sweet to me, and I love you for that! I know that you did everything in your power to help people even when they didnt deserve it, and that just goes to show what kind of guy you are! You are a true gentlemen, you always stayed to help me put up chairs, and you would hold the door for me when we would come back inside from smoking. The one thing that I will never forget about you is the fact that you told me EVERY SINGLE time that you saw me, that I had a sparkle in my eye. You said no matter where I stood, or how the light shone, there was always a sparkle. I swear to you, that was the sweetest thing anyone has every said to me before! I will never forget it or you! We became really good friends, we used to go out and shoot darts together, and ride out together. I miss your smile and your laugh.........O!! And I don't know why this has happened to you. You know I just moved, and I was so excited for you to come up and shoot darts with me, but now you can't. I don't know how exactly to deal with the sadness that I feel for you and for your family. Together we were friends, and now I cry alone!!!! I miss you Josh, more than you will ever know! And I will NEVER forget you!! I love you! -Speth

My heart breaks for the family and for my own loss in not seeing Josh.
BUT... like the MercyMe song says:
I CAN ONLY IMAGINE what I will do when I stand before HIM... Josh now knows the beauty of HIS presence.. I bet JOSH danced and said OH>>>

I met Josh at Bartow High in my very first class, softball class. We became friends & even tried dating, but remained friends throughout high school and even after high school. Josh was always very respectful and loyal. I had not seen him in a couple of years when he used to come to Champs where I worked to play pool w/ his brother. Those were the last times that I ever got to see Josh, but my memories of some of the crazy times that we had together will last forever.

Josh and I went to school together. In gym class he and I would talk everyday. He would often come over to visit our family. He was a hardworking young man who seemed to be destined for good things, but unfortunately his life was cut short. i will always remember your friendly attitude and sense of humor.
