I Want to let you know that I am thinking about you and your family and I give you my deepest condolences
I pray to God for peace & love especially for your family. I will forever remember you & your kindness & encouragement for this non traditional nursing student (I was 52). I pay it forward every day there are nursing students at the cancer center. I love you Joshie!
I won’t be able to make it to the funeral, but knowing Josh in my life has been a joy. I remember when he was young he would come to Another Way, where Ron and I worked with mutiple children. Josh stood out as a gem and a delight. It was wonderful to see him go on with life and Jesus. I’m sure that he will be missed this side of heaven. Although now he is in his realm. Sending my love to you all.
Cindy, all of your friends here at the 7th send our deepest sympathy and condolences to you and all your family.
Josh stayed with us and helped us understand everything in the medical world during the passing of my late husband. Josh was such a sweetheart of a guy, always there when needed. I think back over the last few years and it saddens me to think someone so bright that always had answers for everyone else couldn’t fix his problem. Josh was like one of our family members. We had no problem including him in our family get togethers. Cindy and Jessica our hearts are heavy with the passing of our dear dear friend.
We send our sincere condolences for your loss. Sending love and hugs

He has inspired me so many times. May the memories of his wonderful caring life bring your family peace and heal the ache left from his passing. Josh touched so many lives with his loving and caring spirit.

Cindy and family I am so very sorry for your loss. May God wrap his loving arms around you, comfort and ease your pain at this most difficult time. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
Josh was still a CNA, going to nursing school when I met him at Brandon Woods. I was a brand new LPN. Josh was a kind and gentle person. He loved nursing at every level. He could make us laugh when we were so tired and hurting. He always had a smile for everyone. He was my birthday buddy, and even though it has been years since we worked together, I will miss just knowing that he is out there in the world making someone’s day a little brighter.
Josh you will forever be in our hearts may you Rest In Peace and fly high with the angels
