Tracey and I continue to pray for you and your family.
Joshua was my eldest grandson. I was able to visit when he was 4 months old. I put him in the bathtub with Megan and he began to laugh, kick and splash at that young age.  I couldn't wait to retire to be with them.  He was two when we retired. He refused to wear shoes. When he came over, he would stick those little feet up and say, " Granny, I have ( Boo Boo's), you need to fix them.  Then he became my precious Boo Boo.  As he got older, he would come over sick and say," Granny, I am sick , mother asked if I need to see the doctor but I said, no just take me to Granny".   His favorite bible story was about Noah and the Arc. His favorite movies were The Jungle Book and The White Buffalo.  He loved all of our pets and of course the pool.  He wanted to ride his motor car. Megan and I walked him to the park. He wasn't suppose to go fast but on the way back , he decided to ( put the peddle to the metal ). We were running trying to catch him but he was in middle of the road with cars stopped both ways. He was so excited and proud of himself, it didn't scare him one bit but I almost had a heart attack. After that I had a long dog leash that I attached to his car so I could keep him safe. He wasn't afraid of anything and so full of life.  Joshua's favorite book was ( Sam, I Am) with green eggs and ham. We had to cook those for him. He loved to spike his hair and wear it green or purple. I thank God for the time I had with ( My precious Boo Boo). We don't understand why bad things happen to good people.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. Dave and Sandy
I am so sorry for the loss of such a fun person. He was also the life in the room at the river when we worked together.
So very sorry for your family’s loss and this difficult time.

I'm sorry to hear this Josh was a great guy and he will be missed. Prayers an thoughts to Emily an her daughter as well as all Josh's friends and family.
My deepest Sympathies for everyone.  What a tragic loss.  God speed.
I recall not long ago that the three of you were visiting and Thira Rose was having a good time following, crawling, after one of the little dogs around (Precious).  Rose soon was standing near the couch looking at the pup.  The pup took off across the room and Thira Rose went off walking after her.  Joshua and all of us were so surprised to see Rose take off walking without help.  Joshua was so excited to see his daughter walking.  We all were excited too.  This was the first time that we saw Rose go walking.  Joshua was so proud of his little girl and had a great love for his daughter and Emily.  Memories will always be with us all as to the joys that we shared.
Emily, our heartfelt condolences to you and Thira Rose, and all the family and friends.  Grandma and Grandpa loved seeing you all.  May God give you His Comfort and Peace.  We send our Prayers, Love and Blessings to you.
