To Joshua's Mom, Debbie and family.....it's Steve from Tucson, I just signed on for the first time since I last posted, and was ever grateful to see you had read my memory about Josh.  I'm so happy you liked what I had written.  My memories of the times Josh and I spent together are still ever vivid and wonderful.  They comfort me beyond description.  In this life, I believe we hope to encounter others who bring the best out in us....to encounter those who are extraordinarily kind, trustworthy, fun, and supportive.  Joshua certainly had all of these wonderful qualities, and more.  With my near photographic memory, the memory of the Winter day he and I went up Alvernon Way on our bikes, and then hiked up in the Catalinas in the snow for an hour, enjoying the winter wonderland up there, celebrating the unique snow in the desert....the memories of that day always comfort me, as I relive them every time I think about them.  It's certainly one of my greatest memories.  I'm comforted by Josh's kindness in my memories,  as he was the most trustworthy and supportive of friends....one who makes life the best.  It's memories like these that bring the greatest happiness in life, and a most grateful feeling that life on earth is made forever enviable by Josh and those who are like him.  My best to the family.....Josh is always with us, a shining light of kindness and happiness.

Dear Son,
 Sorry that it has been so long since I have made an entry.
  Don has cancer and congestive heart failure they gave him one year to live. So things have been pretty crazy, but I still think of you all of the time. I need you so much.
  Stephanie is getting married in August, she is so busy getting things ready, it is such a long way a ways that I don't know what she is going to do. I don't know if we can make it because of don's health.
 That is all for now I love you with all of my Heart.
  Love Mom

My Dear Son Joshua,
  Well it was 5 years ago yesterday since I last talked to you. It sure doesn't seem like it because I keep you in my Heart. I remember you  calling with your cheerful voice. I miss you soooooooooooo much
Love Mom

Hello Son,
 How are things going? I sure do miss you a lot.  The mornings aren't the same without your cheerful phone call, to get me going.
 Don and I are going to a family reunion and then to see his Aunt and Uncle. Then to Niagara Falls for a day. Well I wish you were with us.
That is all for now. Love you with all of my Heart.
Mom

My Dear Son, 
I have another request could you please help our loved one Ricky Zimlich, He passed away yesterday,I love and miss you every day. 

Love always, Mom

Joshua: be sure to welcome your cousin crystal who came to heaven last Friday! She is the daughter of Margaret. She had foot surgery and a blood clot went to her lung. She died the day before her 35th birthday.  Grandparents Betty and Fred are both not very well. Betty had pacemaker last week. Fred had a pacemaker already and has surgery Thursday to change batteries in it. Funeral is Wednesday at 10:00 am

Dear son,
 How are things going for you. I know that you are doing a lot better than here. I sure do miss you and so do a lot of other people. The warm weather is coming in like a heat wave, bringing us the monsoons.(look out).
 Give my Love to all and time goes fast, will see you soon.

Dear Son,
  Well summer is here and it is hot and humid. I'm so glad that you are not out there working in the heat, suffering. Even though I miss you so much I'm learning to think of you, and all that you went thru.

 I miss you so much and think of you every day. I don't need to put it on paper. My heart is still so heavy and I think it has taken this long to come out of shock. So many things about you I miss so much, I just wanted to let you know,my life just isn't the same.

Love, Mom

My Son,
 Time changes today, more time to sleep in you use to always wake me up with your cheery voice. Too much time has gone by. I'm watching the leaves fall so peacefully to the ground, until I realize that I have to sweep them up.
 I Love and miss you dearly.

Love Mom

Dear Joshua,
 Well summer is almost over and the leaves are falling. This year is going fast, but I still think of you every day. Just wondering, what it is like for you now. 
Missing you Love, Mom

Joshua,
 The 27th is the day of the ceremony to say good-bye. I will be playing your   words that were said at the  services, Norman did a great job, He Loved you also. Many people did.
  This day was so hard on so many people, saying good-bye to some-one with so much life and Love in them. My Son, I never told you enough how proud I was of you.
Love Always and Forever,
Mom

My only child Joshua,
 Four years ago today, I was told you passed away. My spirit walked away from me but I  still lingers on. Dad passed away on the same day one year before. oh the pain. Some day we will all  be together (God Willing). I Love you both so much.
Love Mom

My Dear Son,
 Well it has been 4 years today since I last talked to you. I sure do miss your cheery voice. It has been along 4 years for me. I know that it must be wonderful where you are for that I'm grateful. All your loneliness is over.
Love, Mom

My Dear Son,
 Thinking of you every day and wondering where you would be by now. 
The guest house we have would of been perfect for you. I guess that God had other plans.I just miss you so much.Your life was too short, but you helped so many.
Love, Mom

Dear Son,
  Well I finally made it back to the cemetery and put up new flowers. It was so hard to think of you being gone. I sure miss your upbeat attitude and your calls. Soon we will be together, like they say "life is short". I Love you A lot, and always.
Love Mom

  Thinking of you as always and wishing you were here. But I know that you are better off where you are.
   Konnie says "Hi" and soon it will be winter and cold. Right now the trees are green with lots of leaves ready to turn colors and fall.
    I look at the chickens you made every day and see what a marvelous job you did on them, no wonder Grandma loved them so much.
 Miss you Buddy.

Thankful that all our angels in heaven are together and happy.  I can see them all especially grandma Mickey and that contagious laugh she has.  They are all in a circle, holding each others hands and laughing.  Love to all of them and to you !!!!

Dear Joshua,
 I am still keeping you in my prayers and I see that old friends are also. Thank-you Steve for such nice comments about my Son. That is why losing him has been so very hard,he was so giving and loving.
Love, Mom

I used to attend Orange Grove Junior High School back in the 80's and was a friend of Josh Ramet.  I haven't seen him since, but have a photographic memory, and recall one of the happiest days of my existence spent with Josh as we hiked up Finger Rock Trail for about an hour in the Catalina Mountains one afternoon after school, shortly after there was a rare snowfall during the day.  Given my memory is photographic, the images came to me suddenly this evening, and I knew I had to go online to find him. Im deeply saddened to see he passed on. Josh was an amazing gentleman, and a good friend, and I'll forever be thankful for him being part of my middle childhood life. His extraordinary, upstanding character enlightened us all, and it continues to do so. He is always with us.....always.

Dear Joshua,
  I need to ask for your prayers. Don went back into the hospital today, he had chest pains and his pulse was 174. They spent all day trying to bring it down and keep it there, no luck.
  I'm not even over losing you. I burn a candle every night in that cowboy you liked. I love you Son.
Mom

My Dear Son,
 How are things like for you? I wish you could answer in some way. Thinking of you and all who are with you, keeping busy here. It has finally cooled off and the leaves are falling& falling all around us, as long as it is the leaves and not the trees I'm happy.
Missing you as usual.
Love Mom

Dear Joshua,
 Our prayers go out to Sonny and his family. We know all to well about cancer. Please God watch over them,they have been with you all of their life.
Love, Susan

Dear Josh:  Think of you a lot.  Please tell God to remember your cousin Sonny.  He has bladder cancer and they are removing his bladder today.  Tell all in heaven I miss them !!!!!

My Dear Son,
Today as I was sitting in the back yard a baby Cardinal came up to eat, remember how you always called when you saw them. It made me feel so good inside. I miss you everyday. Enjoy your new Life.
Love Mom

Dear Son,
I'm keeping in touch. It makes me feel like part of you is close to me. Life has a funny way of making people hold on to certain things. The chickens you made in third grade are still in good shape, I keep them on the shelf in the bedroom. I have a shelf just for you with a lot of your things. Remember the candle holder of the old man? Yes, it's there also. Missing you always.
Love, Mom

Dear Joshua,
 Today starts the tribute for the wounded warriors. Over a thousand people are expected to be there. Don has helped out a lot. I am going to help this week-end,The Lion's club will donate all the money to them. 
 Thank-you Debbie for all your love and support.
Loving you always Son.,Mom

Josh:  I got a letter from your mom today.  My heart is broken for her, she misses you so much.  Noone should ever have to lose a child.  She loved you so much and I love her so dearly. - Debbie

Dear Son,
 Today is 9-11 a terrible day in history for the U.S.A.,so much suffering and sadness still to this day.
  This week-end the Lion's club is having a big benefit for the wounded warriors.Three days of food,bands etc.
So many are helping to make money for them. I know you would be right there. Missing you so much.
Love, Mom

Dear Son,
 September is here,summer is almost over. The leaves are starting to change colors. I wish you could be here to see all of our trees, somehow I feel that you can. I keep you in my heart. Don is doing better, no surgery so far. 

Missing you always,
Mom

My Dear Joshua,
  August 27,2012 we laid you to rest, Norman did such a beautiful service it really made us feel how much happier you would be in Heaven with God. I still miss you sooo much. Take care buddy.
Love Always, Mom

Dear Joshua,
 Wanted to keep in touch and let you know that Konnie and Bill sold their house. Last year we sold ours now they sell theirs. Right now there is a heavy storm coming in, it makes me think of you and the monsoons.Say "HI" to all.
Love Mom

My Dear Son,
 August 17th, the day they told me you passed away. Part of me left with you. Most of the time I feel like I'm only half here. I know that you are in good hands with God, I just miss your upbeat attitude, no matter what happened. You truly loved Life. I truly loved You.
Mom

Dear Son,
Today August 14,2012, was the last time that I spoke with you,it was our "last call" if I only would have known. I Love You.
Mom

Hello Son,
Today is another warm and humid day in Florida. I know that you are up there enjoying life with all of the family who have passed, that is what keeps me going. To think that you have nothing to worry about any more,medical and financial. I know that many people miss you. This week is going to be very hard. I can't believe it will be a year since you last talked to me.It seems like an eternity. 
Love always, Mom

Dear Josh:  So good to know Don's good news.  I will be praying for his upcoming heart valve surgery.  I know your mom needs him greatly after your loss.  My birthday was last Saturday! :) We have deer like your mom that we watch in the field behind our house.  Love them.  They are beautiful.  I hope there is deer in heaven.  Love, Debbie

Dear Son,
  Today is your cousin Melissa's Birthday. We got back from our trip safe & sound, sooner than we had planned. The first day of August and the deer are all around the yard it sure is fun to watch them. The one I call Joshua is growing fast. I miss you Son.
Love, Mom

Dear Joshua,
 Our prayers were answered. They were able to get Don's heart back into rhythm. Now they will operate on the heart valve when he is stronger. Next week we will go to a family reunion on his side so I will be out of touch for a while . You will still be in my thoughts daily.Like they say out of site but not out of mind, ever. I want to thank-you for the entries, Debbie.
Love, Mom

Dear Josh:  It seems impossible that it has been almost a year.  I know it has been a horrible year for your poor mom and she misses you so much and also the burden of worrying about Don.  You are all on my mind and in my heart daily.   Love, Debbie

My Dear Joshua,
 It has been a long 11 months ago today. I was told that you were gone to a better place. I still feel like it was yesterday. I know things are better for you now and that helps.
Tomorrow they are going to see if the clots in Don's heart are gone and if they are they are going to jump start it. Please pray for him. I Love and miss you Son.
Mom

Dear Son,
 I have a favor to ask of you. Please ask God to watch over someone very near and dear to me, I just heard from her and was wondering why it had been so long. Give her the strength that she needs. Thank-you. Don was back in the hospital, home now. The flu bug is going around and guess who got it, still sick.  I still think of you all the time and miss your calls. I grab the phone and think of calling you but.....
Love Mom
