This is Daniel Byrd, one of Josh's friends. I was shocked to hear of Josh's death recently. To all his family, just know that Josh was a good fellow. I was looking forward to contacting him and spending time with him. Now, I will look forward to the day I see him in heaven and spend time with him there. God Bless All Of You.

Dear Mary,Mindy,Paula,Ann,Stacy,Jordan,Breanna,Buddy,Beth,Mark,and Children,
I still can't believe that Joshua is gone from us,but Praise God that I have the peace to know that Josh is free in his mind of confusion and in his heart of hurt. He knows that we all loved him and love him still and wanted what was best for him. He will never be gone from us for he lives on through Jordan and Breanna and the day will come when we can look on them and smile instead of cry. Ride out the storm, one day Jesus will step out and calm it. I wonder how many fish that he has caught while fishing with his grandpa and great-grandpa Kitchens? I bet he is getting lots of hugs from great-granny Kichens and lots of slaps on the back by Granny Carrie Akridge. I envy Josh his new home. He is living in a mansion now and if we think that he had a beautiful smile here, I can only imagine how it is now.Let's all
be sure to strive to teach his babies about Jesus and salvation and pray for them both, so that one day, they can go to see Jesus and their daddy. He will be forever in our hearts and he will never pass this way again, but thankfully we can go there. John 14:1-3, "Let not your heart be troubled, ye believe in God, believe also in me, for in my Fathers house are many mansions, if it were not so I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you and if I go to prepare a place for you I will come again and receive you unto myself, that where I am, there you will be also.
I love you all and I love you Josh.
In Christ, Aunt Connie
