He loved his family, animals, and attending music festivals. Through Joshua's career as a long haul truck driver, he and his girlfriend, Shawna Todd and their beloved traveling companion, Roxy, they were able to travel to 43 states together. More than anything, Joshua had the biggest heart, his generosity knew no boundaries.
He is survived by his mother; Deanna Patton, stepdad; Perry Patton, brothers; Kevin McMichael and Steven Hayward, sisters; Audrey Davis and Anna Davis, two stepsisters; Kelly and Leslie Patton, nephews; Austin and Dylan Hughart and nieces; Lillian Earl and Stevie Patton.
