I never personaly got to meet Josh, but I remember seeing him at school one day when I was picking my daughter up, I asked her was his last name Holland and she said yes. AMAZING, he looked so much like Terry and Mark. Yes and the the times that I did see him, he always had the biggest smile.
God bless you all, Love always Jennifer Byrd-McClees

Our heart breaks for you and pray for you to be strong through this
terrible heartache. I will always remember Josh and Grant playing when
they were little boys, even though Josh was a year younger than Grant he was so much bigger they were so cute. You all will be in our thoughts and pray & we will cherish the memories we had together.
Love David, Dolly, and Grant

When I was told sunday that you had passed away my heart literally dropped to my stomach. I told you that if I ever lost you I wouldn’t know what to do. I’ve done lost you and I hate it. I just wanna wake up and all this be a dream. If I were to know that Thursday would’ve been my last time talking to you I definitely would have told I loved you. You’ll forever hold a BIG spot in my heart, which you already know you do. I’m gonna miss terribly josh. Rest in complete peace honey. I love you❤️

I wish I had words to lighten your agony but sometimes words are just not enough. Please accept my deepest condolences on your loss. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
