Oh Josh ! How on earth have you been gone 14 yrs?! So much has happened. So many things you’d shake your head at ! I still think of you daily ! Wish i could pick up a phone just to hear you say “ keep ya head up Ma your stronger then you give yourself credit for “ …. Love ya forever and a day homie ❤️

14 years seems like forever to some people but that day you left us remains in my heart and mind everyday! You were so loved, I hope you know that. You are missed beyond words. Katie, Evan and Max wanted to know if they were going to see Uncle Josh’s bench❤️ They know who you are, you would have been the best uncle anyone could have!! I love you so very much and pray to Jesus He wraps His arms around you to let you know! We miss you so very much Josh!! You had a lot going on but I blame a few people for your death! They know who they are! I will never forget! Just know that I would have traded places with you! Katie had everyone come to her house this year, Aunt Patty and Kevin also were there! We had a very nice time! I went to the cemetery after Evan’s 8 AM soccer game and 10AM baseball game, I know he sure must have been tired!  I miss you and love you so much! I love you and Katie more than my life itself❤️❤️❤️

It’s been 13 years, I did not think I would last one year! If not for your sister I guess I would not have and of course all our family! I keep asking why you? But the Lord had other plans for you!! Your sister rented a cabin in Luray, 2 hours from the house!! A few snakes which I don’t like BUT… we had a wonderful dinner that she made and a shot of Tequila to you!! Evan had his mitt and ball. I should have bought the hoola hoop and some other things we could have played with. Pop pop bought his baseball card, well only 2 books and let Evan look at them. He gave Evan a card and Max!! Oh yeah we had cupcakes too !!! Beautiful scenery, so serene and peaceful!! The kids were fishing. I miss you so very much and love you so much! Your dad was there of course, Jeanne’s mom was very sick. Aunt Patty went to the cemetery with me earlier and she watched Nellie! I love you more than my life itself, I wish you were here —just one more HUG!!❤️❤️

Happy 40th Birthday Big Guy!! Hope you are dancing in the sky or maybe rapping in in the choir! I am sure Jesus loves all music. I love you with all my heart and can’t believe you are 40 but you will always be Forever 27! I miss you more than words can say! You are my sweet humble loving boy! Always looked after your friends. Had a dream where you told me to check on Randy again, what’s up with that? I texted him but he has not returned my text, I am sure he will. Love you with all my heart, see you soon!!❤️❤️❤️

Happy “39” Birthday my big guy! Why are you not here celebrating with us? Don and I went to Mike’s with the gift card Katie gave me for Mother’s Day!! First thing I saw on the menu was a Mojito or Mohito? You loved those!! And guess what I had a drunken rib eye, your favorite which you introduced Don and I to!! Sure wish you had been with us!! You were my first born son, so beautiful but how scared I was at first but when I saw you I melted!!! I love you so very much, loved you then and still love you now!! You were always so good hearted, humble, lovable, funny, talented, handsome, happy and always made your nanny laugh so hard!! When you came in the room, you lit it up!! We all couldn’t wait for you to come in the door!! I went to the cemetery today and cleaned your bench, cut the grass around it and put up a Happy Birthday sign and sat there for a while with you!! You are so missed and loved you will never know how much!! Your sister misses you so very much, just wish you could be here to see those beautiful babies she has!! I love you more than life myself!! I would trade places with you if I could!! Save a place for me, ok!!! Love you so very much, mom

Carol,
  I send you a note of love and peace today, Josh's Day!
He will always be your beloved memory.

Carol, i have one big wish for you,,, i wish you peace! Our Good Lord is taking care of Josh and im sure they both are watching over you. Peace be with you on this day and forever!!

Hello my big guy, I love you today and for ever!! I don’t know where the time goes!! I miss you so very much! I just wish you were here to play with Evan and Max, you would make such a good uncle!! Today your urn will go into a Bereavement Bench. It will be hard carrying you out of my house but this is what your dad wants!! I guess he wants to go and visit you. I kinda of understand but he could have taken you to his house for a while!! I pray that God holds off the rain for a while! I will miss kissing you and lighting light when it goes out!! You will always be my boy and you were my first born, I wish I could have protected you better! Brad could have called 911 that night but he didn’t!!! I will always blame part of this on him!! Your sister Katie, your dad and I love you for eternity and on just as Nanny, Aunt Peggy and Aunt Patty do along with Evan and Max. Always know how much.

Oh my Josh Weaver, where do I start? Nine years, I did not think I would survive but because of Jesus, your sister, her babies, Don and our family and friends I did. Not a day goes by that I don’t think about your laughter and your silliness!! I now can smile when I think of you and my mashed potatoes and my fruit cups- you nut!! Oh yea, what about my blacked eye peas?? One of my best memories I have is you sitting on my stairs after having 27 people for a sit down Thanksgiving dinner and you saying “Mom I don’t know how you do it”!! I have so many good memories I could go on and of course not so many good ones but no matter what you did or didn’t do a mother always loves her flock and forgives! I do have guilt for not seeing that you needed help me or your dad couldn’t give. You kept a lot to yourself. We went to Dixie Bones, one of your many favorite places to eat, we missed the brunch but still ate good!!! Yum yum, nummy nums as Max would say!! You would make a great uncle, those kids would adore you!! Pastor Tony gave a wonderful prayer at the river, we had a few from our church family come also! I wished they would have been able to meet you!! I am so proud to be your mama, wouldn’t have it any other way!! I love you my son more than my life itself. Rest with Jesus until I can have one of those bear hugs again.❤️

Hi my big guy, 
I miss you so very much of every minute of every day! My heart hurts for you. I miss your smile and your crazy laugh! I miss those bear hugs and you eating our holiday dinners with us. I have a street cleanup for you, now twice a year. Family and friends come out to help! It is sort of a fellowship that I look forward to! I guess you see all that is happening, Mark has a new girlfriend, Rick also but now he has put out his CD, in memory of you! Katie had a little girl and named her Max, she is a lil princess! And our Evan is getting big, he is the apple of my eye! He filled my heart and I know why God gave him to us! He runs like you and he is a character, he has a sense of humor like you would not believe! Katie and Stefan live close so I am to grateful for that. I need Katie more than she knows. She has a hard time with your death even 7 years later. I understand, just wish she would talk to me. I love you so very much, so so very much. Going to see Nanny for Thanksgiving! It is still horrible for us to know that you have passed! What do we do? Pastor Tony and Kim and their two beautiful children have been to your memorials all this time, what would I do without them also. Aunt Patty lives in the back house, so glad we can help her. Your dad tries to stay busy. And Don always working on books. My sweet and humble boy, I love you more than my life itself!!! 
love mom, xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

Josh you are thought of and prayed for daily daily in my home. So is your sweet family. I cant wait to finally meet you one day in heaven. In the meantime please continue to look down and help protect our lil Josh here on earth.

Josh I love you and miss you so much! I can't believe on Sept.9 it will be 4 years you went to be with our Lord and Savior! I think about you all the time and the ways you always made me laugh. Life here on earth isn't the same without you. By God's Grace, knowing we will be together again one day brings me peace. Love you always, Aunt Patty

Josh you will never know how much I love you and miss you! Your smile, your laughter, your spirit and your big HUGS are what I miss. My son, you are in my heart forever and eternity. You have such a big heart filled with kindness and love. I love you more than my life itself!!    Love, mom
