Bloomfield, Joshua Daniel TROY Joshua Daniel Bloomfield, 41, a son, uncle and brother to so many has passed on from this world surrounded by his loved ones on September 15, 2020. He was born on September 15, 1979. From an early age, his love for music led him to embracing percussion instruments and bringing joy to many for the rest of his days. While small in stature, he was a giant talent behind the drum kit. The list of bands he was a part of is too numerous to accurately count. Only his most frequent musical partner, Jeremy Walz, could actually describe all his amazing performances and venues played. He frequently used his skills for good causes and never refused to play a benefit or charity event. Josh's interests included many other pursuits, pool, boxing, football, lacrosse and fishing with his Dad. Josh was a prolific comedian and master of bantering. Anyone who has met him will always remember his quick wit and positive vibes. His concern about the well-being of others led him to touching souls from all walks of life. Josh was a graduate of School 14, Troy High School, and some might say Siena College since he spent so much time there with his lifelong friend Eric Rouleau. He had several jobs over the years. His most recent gig was serving with distinction as a New York State civil servant for the last 15 years. Josh is survived by his parents, Daniel and Susan Bloomfield; his grandmother Emily Hebert; several aunts, uncles, cousins; beloved pet Hank; and the love of his life Tiana. Family and friends are invited and may call from 4 to 7 p.m. on Friday, September 18, at the McLoughlin & Mason Funeral Home, corner of 109th Street and Third Avenue, Lansingburgh. Please note that social distancing, masks and occupancy limitations in the funeral home are required. Burial of cremated remains will be held at 12 p.m. on Monday, September 21, in the Eagle Mills Cemetery, Brunswick. All are invited. In lieu of flowers, please donate to the cholangiocarcinoma Foundation at https://cholangiocarcinoma.org. I will leave you with this quote from his father Dan: "The most wonderful son, friend, and forever partner in crime. I can't say enough about the best guy in the whole world. I love you so much. My heart is broken beyond repair. I love you son, you'll be with many friends in heaven. I'll never forget you pal. Mom and I will love you for eternity. Goodbye for now. Rest easy Bud."

My sincere condolences to Josh's family - Josh worked at UAlbany with my son Ben and he was always cheerful and fun loving and made me feel welcome whenever we were at a gathering such as a work meeting, luncheon, party or a golf outing. He is greatly missed.

It was really great to know Josh and to play music with him. I especially remember the time at P4 when he stepped up and rehearsed with the band when our drummer didn’t show. Rest in Peace. Johnny Rabb

I was Josh' s Social Studirs teacher at DMS. So.many things he was as an adult he was as a 14 yr old. It was reading his obit and remembrances that brought back my memories of him. He was never without his "sticks". He would literally bounce into class excited about something. He was one of many students I had who loved music at an early age and it became their life's work. I remember he had a good friend and I could not remember her name until I saw her remembrance here, Amanda. I am saddened by his early passing

Sue and Dan I 'am thinking of you and I 'am sorry for your loss. Just wanted to share with you my experience with Josh. Anytime I was at a family gathering Josh was the first one to always jump out of his seat and go out of his way to shake my hand and say hey Dave how you doing. He sure was such a nice young man.

What can I say other than I loved your heart? From that jovial smile to you walking me or driving me to class on campus just so we could chat over breafast. You were amazing to me, and I don't know that I deserved a friend like you, and Im so sad that I didn't get to see you these past few years as life often does. But I miss you, and my heart hurts with your absence in the world. This world needs souls like yours and the world is lesser today than it was just 2 days ago. Fly High man and know you are so loved and so missed.

I think I first met Josh when he was about 18 yrs old and he was already usually the best drummer at the open mics we all hung around and he just got better all the time . They say a band is only as good as the drummer and Josh never let you down and we had a lot of laughs over those years I know I'll always remember you fondly kid .
