There are not enough words to fully express our heartfelt gratitude for your kind expression of sympathy, love, and support you have extended to our family during this heartbreaking loss. Your thoughts and prayers, flowers, kind messages and lovely cards, phone calls, home-baked meals, kind gestures of help with Joshua's memorial service and reception, and all the love donations for Ruthie and the children, which will help them in the coming months, have been overwhelming and such a blessing to all of us. It meant so much to Ruthie, the boys, and family for the presence of extended family, friends, past and present co-workers, high school classmates and mentors, and church family at Joshua's memorial service. We wish to express our sincere appreciation to Pastor Ron Lilly for giving a beautiful service that truly honored Joshua's memory and faith. Everyone's love and kindness brought us great comfort and will always be remembered. We deeply appreciate each and every one of you. May the Lord bless you and keep you.
