My dear friend Josh, how I miss you so much already. I'm thankful for getting to know you and your mom. I 100% can witness to you never meeting a stranger, from the very first day you came to paint at my shop over two years ago, you were always so friendly with me and everyone who painted alongside you. It was so nice to see you just about every Saturday to make gifts for so many people in your life. I'm thankful they have tangible pieces of your art to cherish. You will always be missed.
I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of Josh. He will be missed. I worked with Josh, I enjoyed the different stories he shared with me about his childhood. We shared plenty of laughter together. Family, I pray that God gives you the strength you need in your time of sorrow. Look towards the hills which cometh your help.

So sorry for your loss may you find peace and comfort in the words spoken at 2 Corinthians 1:3 & 4" ( 3) Praised be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of tender mercies and the God of all comfort, (4 ) who comforts us in all our trials so that we may be able to comfort others in any sort of trial with the comfort that we get from God.

Josh was very talkative, spoke to anyone he came across and asked them how their day was going. He will be missed by all here at SEAHDC. I, myself, wish I had more time to get to better know him. I would like to give my heart-felt condolences to his family and friends.
My condolences go out to all of the family and may God give you all the strength you need throughout this difficult time. Josh touched the lives of so many people with his jokes, laughter and his contagious smile! It was truly an honor to know him and God gained another amazing angel for the heavens above.
I was heartbroken to hear the news that Josh had passed. He was one of my very first friends in life and an absolutely beautiful human being. I will miss our letter correspondence and his always cheerful nature. I send my thoughts and prayers to his family and friends.
I met Josh when he started coming to Civitan. He was a bundle of joy and always loved to kid around. He was a great friend who will be missed dearly. My thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends from anywhere.
