Dear Josh,
It's Marie, your second mom. I love you and miss you. We think of you as our lives go on without you. Jordan has a son James Robert Altobelli and Reese is playing in his music loud and proud. I can't believe how much time went by. I hold dear every memory we shared. From running through the neighborhood and throwing eggs at the neighbors we didn't like. And going up north and riding 4 wheelers. You were the light of any party. How many times did we fall over with laughter. I miss baking my bread for you. You were my son, my friend, my comic relief and I hold you dear to my heart.💜 Somewhere in time, we'll be together.

Thinking about you being 40...
I will always remember you as the young rebel with a big heart.
I really miss you and will see you again one day 💕

HAPPY 34TH BIRTHDAY JOSH
I THINK OF YOU OFTEN.
LOVE, AUNT KIM ❤

Josh,

I don't even know where to start...going through thick and thin is an understatement. We always had a great time even took some time off a few times. But neither of us ever worried about it cause we both knew when we finally decided to hang out again we not only picked up where we left off but nothing had even changed. The great thing was that whenever we walked out the front door of wherever we may had been, regardless of the situation, we knew that we had each other backs because we both knew we'd take a bullet for the other if it came down to it. We weren't just best friends we were brothers it might as well have been blood. you might be gone but I'm still not giving up on the dream we had so long ago to start our own car company. After that day and that talk I grabbed that dream and ran with it. You told me so many times you were proud of the fact that I had done so much and that it would have been a waste if I hadn't. You always saw my potential even when I didn't. I won't let you down. I know for a fact that I wouldn't be the person I am today had you and I never met. Goodbye I'll never forget you.

P.S. I'll still buy us both Skylines one day and since your not here to buy them yours will be the pink one...not mine.

Josh, I remember the first day I met you, you were sitting at the back of the bus and I were knew too Michigan. You said I could sit with you and I swear I felt like forest gump lol. You became an instant friend and always had my back. You always had an amazing heart and I will never forget the countless memory's and experiences we shared together. Your life will live on with every person that loves you. For every flight I take you will always be in my heart. For every sunrise or sunset I know you will see too. When I told you my dreams to fly you always told me I could do anything I put my heart into. You gave me the confidence to follow my dreams and I will never forget that. Rest in peice friend. Your in all our hearts.

Josh, when I knew no one and was new to Michigan you were the first to welcome me and from the first day I met you on the bus to school, you instantly became my friend. I remember the first time I met you. You were sitting at the back of the bus and you looked up at me and said I could sit with you. I felt like forest gump lol but you made me feel like I had an instant friend. From that day we always had each others back and you made sure I was always takin care of. You always had an amazing heart. I'll never forget the countless memory's and experiences we shared together. Rest in peace friend. Your life will live through the ones you loved and you will forever be missed. Your memory will always be with me for every flight I take. When I told you my dreams to fly you were the one person that told me that I could do anything I put my heart into. Without your love and encouragement I would of never had the confidence to follow my dreams. Meet you at heavens gate and I'm sure you'll have a seat for me there too.

Kellie,

My dearest friend, my heart breaks for you. I can still remember like it was yesterday, walking down to your house with Samantha and hanging out with you and Josh, he was a good kid! The funny memories, when he said we bought your house, when Samantha locked your bathroom door and he got out his little tool box and was so mad that she did that and he had to fix it. Know that we are thinking of you and Love you very much!

Josh you will be very missed...I remember the good times we had when we were kids, you even played barbies with me! My heart hurts very much I love you and I hope you are at peace now..I know you will be watching over all of us.

The good old hanover crew, that was us. One of my first friends when I moved to Fraser, The times we had are  priceless.

Our hearts are aching for you and your family. Josh was a dear friend of my daughter Jessica Danielson . Our hearts and prayers are with you at this difficult time !

Kellie, I am so very sorry for your lost. My prayers are there for you and your family.

 My first memory of Josh was when he was seven or so, he and my son Jordan became friends as well as me and Kellie. Josh was apart of our family, spending nights, taking vacations with us...making me yell at him to go to sleep. We shared so many jokes, and he could make me laugh like no one else. I always said to him that he was my other son, and I meant it with all my heart. My dear Josh, I can still see you riding like the wind on your bike past my window, while Kellie would be yelling, "Joshua, it's dinner time!"

Kelly, I am so sad to hear of this....my thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time.

Sending our sincere condolences to Matt and Diane Barch and the entire family.

Minth North America, Inc.
