Memorial Day has come again and I especially think of my lil bro on this day. I wish so much that you were still here because the world needs someone like you. Mikey misses you too. I'm trying to move in with Mikey in Boynton Beach because it's gotten hard to take care of the house, I haven't had time to clean, and I haven't been able to bend down because of my Osteoporosis and because of the Neuropathy in my right leg and the medicine not working. Guess that's all. ttyl bruh

Hey Lil bro,
So much has happened since I last talked to you. I've had a few hand surgeries to fix the RA deformities. They're looking better, though one of my fingers feels a bit numb and I know that they'll never look like they used to. Mikey moved out. Neither one of us have vehicles to visit the other. Anyway, you've been watching so you've seen what's been happening. I'm trying to get a job quickly, so I can get a new truck, and what I'd like even better is to be off of all of this assistance for good. I'll let it go at that. Even if I don't stop by as often and leave a note, it doesn't mean I've forgotten about you. You were one of the best friends Mikey has ever had and seemed to understand him better than most people. You were the big brother he's never had and something between like a little brother/friend/son to me. Sometimes he even listened to you better than he listens to me. lol. We both cherish our friendships with you and will never forget.

So many memories came flooding back all at once when I saw your dad today. It feels like it just happened. It doesn't feel like several months have gone by. You had such an effect on so many more people than you ever realized and the world feels a bit emptier without you in it. :'(

Hi I do not know the victim or the victims father however I know one of their friends and I came upon this and this wonderful sounding young man died on my honorary grandmothers birthday who died 3 years ago. From what I have read about this memorial this young man was a bright shining star and I am glad it was fast that he didn't feel any pain and that he now rests with God.

Tomorrow will be 2 weeks and it still seems like a bad dream. I still keep hoping to wake up or something and find that none of it was real. I'll see or hear something and think to call him before realizing that nobody will answer. I will always hold on to the great memories!

Thought of you with love today, but that is nothing new. I thought about you yesterday, and days before that too. I think of you in silence, I often speak your name. All I have are memories and a picture in a frame. Your memory is a keepsake, with which I'll never part. You will always be inside our hearts. We love and miss you Josh. R.I.P.

Words could never begin to explain just how wonderful and gifted Josh really was.From the 1st time we meet him we knew he was different and very special he had a gift and everyone knew it. And a heart of gold. Some of us feel God new what he had when making Josh that he didn't want him to spoil here on earth with all this worldly rottiness so he took Josh to keep him preserved. Love u Josh

I once heard that friends are just the family that you get to pick. You were my brother Josh and you know having a family was always something I longed for, you became that family and helped to fill a void that was in my heart. I love you bro.

It seems like yesterday when Joshua would run from the other boys because they were picking on him up to my house and hang with me until Gene would get home. He was such a sweetie, he will be missed by all his friends and family. He had his whole life in front of him now he's gone to be with the other angels who look over us.

although we never really talked much after high school there will be a space missing in my heart for him, I shall say that because the last time I saw him was at steak and shake randomly while i was with my boyfriend (which he had apparently known in cap like 10 yrs ago) i guess its a really small town bc of that so I know we r all feelin this. i send my love and prayers to his family rip

You never know how long you will have with someone, Time can be fleating. So make as many memories with your loved ones as you can. I could never say the right words to describe my cousin. He always knew how to make you smile, he made friends every where he went.He will be greatly missed by all. Good bye Josh, you will be dearly missed.
May 29, 2012
Josh your life was full of love, kindness & purpose. Death is not the end, but the beginning of eternity with Jesus. Josh, your precious smile, hugs & concern will always be in my heart. You were like one of my children & I feel as if I lost a son. I thank God for the years shared knowing you. You are loved & missed, but never forgotten!

My Angel © Cjr1217

September 8, 2012

I wake up in the morning
And I look up to the sky.
I wonder why he took you
before I could say good-bye

I look up to the stars at night
And know you're looking down.
I'd like to think you're proud of me
But I'm just stumbling round.

So I crawl in bed and close my eyes
And realize that you're really gone.
Then comes the fears and then the tears
And life just seems so wrong.

I glance up at the heavens
And I know you're flying by.
My Angel's watching over me.
I'm happy as I cry.

I remember one night that Josh, Michael, and I were on the way back to Josh's house after CAP.  I let him drive since he said he knew a quicker way.  While we were joking, he asked if we wanted to go to England on the way.  Michael excitedly said sure (not thinking about where England actually is), so since there wasn't anyone coming Josh went into the left lane and said, "Okay, now we're in England"  and we all laughed.

I Miss You © Alyssa

I miss you so much.
You don't have a clue.
You were like a brother
now my heart is in two.
I think about you constantly. 
Can't get you off my mind.
I understand it was destiny,
but you were so sweet and kind.
I know you're in a better place,
but yet my heart keeps crying.
You were so sweet and innocent at time
and inside my body is  dying. 
But I know I'll have to move on
because it is what you would want. 
You would want me not to cry,
but to be happy and live a wonderful life. 
I'll always remember the wonderful memories you left behind
and hopefully I'll see you when the time to go is mine.
