We only met Josh once, this summer, at Tony Priolo's house in Seward. Josh was so easy and fun to talk with. We enjoyed discussing the way he made the fence there, and his other interests. Josh was a friend of our daughters Robbie and Paige. They mourn with his family and friends. We wish you all some measure of comfort in your happy memories.

Josh and I were on the USS Enterprise. We shared a love for art, cars, and music. I remember when I bought my Nissan 350z, Josh had just bought a Nissan 240sx with a special engine. We went out for a drive and he smoked me. Afterwards we talked about the mods we would do to the cars and I could have sworn he said he was going to paint it Chimney Chimp White and Josh broke out in laughter with his signature laugh. He had said Championship White but it was forever Chimney Chimp White.

I will always remember Josh as the boy I loved back when I was 14. His big smile and goofy laugh. That stupid skateboard that broke a window and how hard he'd make me laugh. Watching him sneak fries when he worked at McDonald's and confided that he used dog hair trimmers to cut his leg hair (it was always something ridiculous with him). How kind and thoughtful he was when I was sick or sad... I am so grateful that we kept in touch over all these years and that I took every opportunity to tell him that I loved him.

Josh and I met while both living at Buzza Lofts and bonded over the love of our dogs! We spent many nights drinking and laughing together in the courtyard as well as one super fun night of apartment jumping with some other friends/residents to tour/see other apartments in the building for fun! The artwork he made from the nature he found around the neighborhood and the lakes was incredible! Still waiting on the piece I asked for 😝. His love for Aurora and art and his new turtle were incredible and admirable.

Josh, your life was soo well lived and made such an impact on so many! We will celebrate you now and forever! Rest easy
