This is what Josh said to me …
2019
This is what Josh said to me after my dad passed away last year. Even though we hadn’t seen each other since high school he was always checking in with me. He was a great friend even if it was only through Facebook in our adults lives. I will miss him very much. ❤️
My dad was born in Michigan. He loved Michigan University's team... He told me one day he would take me to check out the campus... So I am hoping i will still get the opportunity to go.

I haven't had contact with Josh in years outside of Facebook but my memories of him from junior high camp through college are forever. Such a leader and an amazing person that will be missed but heaven is rejoicing with his arrival.
We are missing him so much!

Hello Brooke,
This is Genaro from English class. I am sorry for your loss.
Sincerely,
Genaro
In this moments of loss, I find my words are useless. Words may not suffice to express the heartfelt sorrow that I feel for the passing of Josh.

However, let me be clear... Josh will be terribly missed. He was loved by so many and he will be cherished in my memories FOREVER. Josh will always hold a special place in my heart. I LOVED him! His softness, humor, leadership, passion and love for people was felt by ALL. Someone so special can never be forgotten. We were ALL better to know him!

May the love and mercy of our Lord be bestowed upon you Rod & Patsy and your family during this unfortunate time. My most sincere condolences and prayers to his children and the entire family.

Jeff Miller

I remember when you both were little and your dad brought you on a trip to Springfield and he dropped you off at my house. It was 4th of July time and there were fireworks going off so we went outside to see them and Joel did not like how loud they were. He kept saying “I want my daddy!” 😊
Me and my dad had many fun memories together. Once in 6th grade we went to the store and he sent me in with 5$. He said, "Go get some breakfast." I went inside and a bit later I came outside with gum, a Gatorade, and probably some mint stuff. I think I got some candy but it was forever ago.
I had also dropped my dads phone in the toilet when I was 2. He always said that my first paycheck would go to him to pay it back. I guess that's one thing I get too keep that i will forever remember him by.
