Joshua's obituary
Joshua Gust Holcomb, born on September 25, 1977, tragically left us on April 3, 2024. Joshua was a warm-hearted man, known for his love of the Greatful Dead. He was an ardent supporter of his favorite sports teams, Ohio State and Pittsburgh Steelers, relishing in their triumphs and standing by them in their defeats. His love for recreation echoed in his beloved pastime of spending quality time with his dogs.
Joshua took great pride in his Arborist Certification, an accomplishment that showcased his extraordinary dedication and resilience. His ardor for nature was not just limited to his professional realm but extended to the private sphere of his life as well, making him a man rooted in the beauty of the natural world.
He is survived by his beloved mother, Valerie Gust, his dear sister, April Gust, and his loving son, Jesse Gust. Their hearts, like many others touched by Joshua's warmth and kindness, are filled with grief over this tragic loss.
Joshua was predeceased by his sister, Elizabeth Gust, his nephew, Christian Thacker, and his grandparents, John and Crystal Holcomb. The memory of their love and companionship will always remain in the hearts of those who were fortunate enough to know them.
The gap left by Joshua's departure is immeasurable, but so is the love and joy he left behind. He will be deeply missed but fondly remembered for his warmth, his love for music and sports, and his unwavering devotion to family and friends.
