For all of you who have the pleasure of knowing Josh, you know how much of a battle he has fought over the last four years and how strong and brave he continues to be in his fight with colon cancer. Even through all he has faced, we have all relied on him for so much and he has never let us down...and now it's time for all of us to surround Josh with our love and support and for us to do whatever we can to help our friend enjoy what precious time he has.

Join me in showing him just how special he is and how respected and loved he is as a son, father, partner, brother, and friend. Share a photo, a special memory, make a donation to help support all of what is to come.

Update from Oct. 14, 2025

Dear friends and family,

We just want to personally thank you for your incredibly generous support for our family during this time. Josh reached the end of his four-year battle with Stage 4 colon cancer on Oct. 12, 2025. Your kindness has brought us comfort during this incredibly difficult time. We are deeply moved by your compassion and it means more to us than we can fully express. At this time, we are focused on being present with each other as we grieve the loss of our father, spouse, son, brother and friend. It brings real comfort knowing we're not alone in this; that people like all of you are thinking of us and willing to help carry some of the weight.

Thank you for your kindness. It will never be forgotten.

With heartfelt gratitude,
Josh's Family
