Just thinking about Josh right now and how sad I am that he’s not in this world anymore. He was such an intense and intentional person. Those that know him will understand what I mean by that. He had so much to give to this world and yet never understood his worth. I miss him. Having a Gentleman Jack with a little ice in his honor. Cheers to your spirit Josh! I’ll always love you.

Josh and I had a thing… Licorice jelly beans and the latest Oreo flavor cookies and Licorice jelly beans just keep popping up! Here’s another bag I just found today 😅

  I love this "selfie" because Josh never liked pictures of him being taken ,,,there are very few!! 

Josh was my photography mentor, friend, and lover 💘.  we always supported each other when things got rough, I'm truly sorry I wasn't there for that final message.. The ring you gave me will always be on my finger and you will always be in my heart ❤️ miss you Joshua Elijah Boggs 💋

Joshua has been laid to rest at promitory lake ,a place he enjoyed all his life.We will miss him so much but he is at peace.7-23-23.❤️.

The story and wonderful memories from this camping trip, if you all only knew.
Yes those two were his first real babies Bubba and Cinder. I could go on and on about these pups and how much they meant to him.

Yup his first sks, ya that’s not me of his smiles too!!! 

Just in case anyone was wondering, this is the picture that started Josh’s photography interest. No he didn’t take it he is the one in the background. After this was developed (yes 35mm we are old ha ha) he asked me how I did that. So the journey began.

Missing you a lot. Here was one of the best memories I have as I first was afraid of the speech he prepared. He nailed it and surprised everyone. Until me meet again brother. RIP

Yes the elusive smile of my brother and best man at my wedding.

I haven’t talked to josh in years, have lots of fond memories, the jokes and pranks. And the occasional mischief we’d get into. 

I wasn’t really close to Josh, but I do mourn his loss.  One funny memory of Josh is the time he was dating my mom, and I thought I was going to have to have a talk with him! Boy was I mad 😂 LOL.  It was over something small too, I was just hyped up. (This was years ago). He ended up being so likeable, funny and caring when I met him in person, that I ended up not having that talk like I thought. 
Josh, you helped out when you could and you were there for my mom when I wasn’t able to. I will always be grateful for that. Rest In Peace 💗

You are gonna be missed my brother, times maybe have changed us but I will always love you and the great times we had growing up. Rest In Peace if anyone I know deserves peace it’s you. Until we meet again and ride to the pool hall to hustle some fools!!! 
Your brother Marshall.


One day you are going to hug your last hug,kiss your last kiss and hear someone’s voice for the last time.Butyou never know when the last time will be,so live everyday as if we’re the last time you will be with the one’s you love.❤️

Josh was fairly distant from me, but I always had a good impression of him, as a fine outstanding person.  I was also impressed with his photography.


Thank you my love for all the adventures .. rides to the beach, the desert, waterfalls, hot springs, and many day’s spent by the creek always looking for that one special rock no matter where we went.  

Thank you for showing me patience, kindness, and lots of sarcastic humor while teaching me to ride my bike.  I’m going to keep on trying.  

Most of all thank you for being my person I could always count on.. every damn time. 



This is your big brother man I love you and I hope you rest in peace in heaven

Josh was a valued friend and colleague at our manufacturing company. I was a strong mentor and coach for his teammate. I always enjoyed my conversations with Josh and knew I could count on him. A rare thing these days. He was smart, thoughtful, kind, and hardworking. He'd do whatever it took to get the job done.

Josh also was a key member of a team which founded Clean Practice (google it!), which applied key elements of Lean Manufacturing to reducing COVID-19 transmission vectors in the workplace. Over 600 organizations around the world have downloaded the Principles of Clean Practice. I'm sure Josh has saved lives with his contribution. I'm sad he has now lost his. 

 I enjoyed my friendship with Josh, which came about through our work together. I knew I could always count on him. He was thoughtful, very intelligent, and warm hearted. He was one of the principle creators of Clean Practice (www.cleanpractice.org), which applied Lean manufacturing principles with the goal of keeping team members safe and morale high during the COVID-19 epidemic. His contributions no doubt saved lives as hundreds of organizations adopted the principles of Clean Practice to keep their teams safe. I'm so sad he lost his. 

At Oktoberfest, Mt. Angel 2021.

The only pic I have of him.

This is how Josh will always be in my memory. Taking pictures and riding. Two of his favorite things. Although we parted ways several years ago, he was a big part of my life and helped me raise my daughter for 8 years. I am heartbroken and will mourn his loss.

Rest in peace Josh, you will be missed at work. I only knew you for less than a year, but in that short time you left an indelible imprint on me. You were so soft spoken but very smart and kind. You always made time to return work related texts. And I grew to trust you as a very respected supervisor.  
God Bless 
Julia 

My good Sir,
Thank you for being a friend. Your gentle and soft spoken personality was so appreciated at a time in my life when I was going through so much. Thank you for accepting me as I was and demonstrating true friendship to so many. Even when times were hard, you were always honest with yourself and others- determined to show perseverance and peace in the face of many hard times. You made it look easy to remain faithful that everything was going to be okay. You may have been a man of few words, but the words you spoke were kind and meaningful. What a treasure you are. May you have a restful sleep. I have no doubt we will see you again one day in full glory according to Jehovah-God's promise (Romans 8.) It'll be sooner than we think. ❤
Forever your friend,
Sharkbait (oo-ha-ha.)


Josh, 
I poured one last cup for you at Mac’s Place.
I’ll miss our Sunday morning coffee.
Peace my friend.

Josh you were such a beautiful and kind soul. Your photography was such a gift to this world. You were a light in our life and will be sorely missed. Xoxo Em and Matt Benson

You were born to ride Josh!  Always will treasure our rides together…. Oh the adrenaline! Many fond memories with our bikes and nature oh and that deer hauling thru the woods right at us….Just the wind between that charging deer and your back tire! Like you said…. Once in a lifetime experience, never will forget that and 
Your love for nature and your kind soul. 
Love you Josh and I know you are happy now and at peace ☮️ 🤗
