to whom it may concern, Only knowing josh for a short time was not enough. He was a wonderful brother, a kind friend and a loving person. He gave full hearted to everything he did. When you asked for help he was there. due to the fact that I could never keep him and his older brother's name straight I called them minion 1 and minion 2 because they were always helping . His life on earth was taken way to early. I will miss him and his catch phrase "What's up". In reply, I would smile, "the sky". He would just look at me and smile. Having him with us at the house this summer was great. The steak dinners and the boat rides, when we didn't break down or hit the rocks, it was a good day. His love for being outdoors and just having fun was amazing. Josh you will always be my little minion and the lil bro. I will miss your smile. Love you... Stacey

Josh was a great kid. I really enjoyed talking with him about his many projects. He'd come over to the fence and say "What's up?" My three year old son would come over and interupt our conversations and Josh would do his best to understand him and chat back to him. He was a hard working kid and was always busy doing something. If he wasn't working on his or someone elses car, he'd be outside doing work around the house helping his parents out. Josh was a kind hearted individual and will be missed around the neighborhood.

I worked with Josh at Engine Pro. Of all the kids we have had there, he was the hardest worker, super polite and always willing to help. I have to say he was one of the nicest kids I have ever met! My heart goes out to his family. You are in my thoughts!

I can't begin to know how much of a loss you must feel after loosing one so precious. I remember that Thanksgiving right after Josh and Jessica were born at JEAN'S apartment community building . How proud the parents were ! I remember those Christmas wreath sales and that I wasn't forgotten . God has a special place for Josh in Heaven , at his right side ! He'll always have a place in my memories. Mort

I remember when I was younger. Aunt Joe and Uncle Tom came over ever year for thanksgiving AND Christmas. Not to mention the rest of my family aunt jean uncle mort EVERYONE! Our house was packed and every year I was excited to see my cousins josh and Joey. We would hang out. Play video games and do whatever cousins did. Looking back I miss those days when I had my family so close. I know over time people grow and they grow apart start family's and "move on" with there lives and make there own but I just wish that we ALL could have stayed close. Josh was a beautiful person inside and out and I will miss him every day. I wish we never grew up and grew apart. Rip cuz

I am so sorry to hear of your lose, I don't know Joshua, but I am friends with Joe at Flextronics. My heart goes out to the family of Joshua, to lose someone that young with their wholes lives ahead is terrible. It may not help now, but he is in a better place than the rest of us. God only calls for the angels He is needing now, He must have needed Joshua. I'm so very sorry, God bless to you and your family, be strong and lean on one another. From a co-worker of Joe's - Lennie Leland - I'm sorry!

I am so sorry for your loss, there are no words to comfort you but I can share that at the scene of the accident Josh expressed concern for his parents.

I am so sorry for your loss. Being a friend of the family while growing up, this is something you never expect to have happen. I remember Josh as being so full of energy and always happy! Being a good friend of Joe's growing up I remember we would sometimes get annoyed and pester him, but there was never a doubt that Josh was a great kid. You will be missed.
