Joshua was a caring, respectful, and inspirational young man. My boys and I will miss him dearly and remember him lovingly. There are no amount of words that can describe the footprints he has left in our lives and on our hearts. Thank you Dawn and Eric for raising a wonderful child that I got to watch turn into an amazing young man. Our thoughts and prayers to all who grieve him.
God Bless our lovely boy. He will be missed by aunts, uncles and cousins all. God rest his soul.
