Tribute

SIX YEARS AGO YESTERDAY---Heaven gained one of the best people who ever lived on this earth and I am grateful to have had the privilege to know him. Josh was truly one of those people who despite his many challenges always had a smile on his face and inspired me to see the good in every situation. He was an amazing example of what being a kind person is and how we should treat others around us, whether we know them or not. It has been a long six years without him on this earth to keep a smile on my face and learn alongside the many independent living skills that have motivated me to get to where I am now. He continues to making an impact on my life everyday through his goodness in helping others to be a little better than they were when they walked into a room. His unconditional love for people in the disability community never failed to amaze me in more ways than one & the hopes to do the same for others who I may interact with in this life. He never once complained or made assumptions about the struggles that he faced on a regular basis, but never let it stop him from being as much a part of society like everyone else and I am grateful he was able to change the world through his small actions. 

#BecauseOfHim, I know my friend Josh will be resurrected to his perfect body and make an even bigger impact on everyone who chooses to accept the gospel of Jesus Christ. I know he is not anymore pain and continues to be an inspiration to so many people, which if you ask me is not even close to being much of an understatement. I know with all of my heart that he will live again and continue doing so much good on the other side of the veil, which if you must know is something I am certain he was anxious to get working at once he arrived in heaven. 

Thank you so much, Josh for being a part of my life and making me a better person than I ever could have imagined myself to be. I look forward to being reunited with you on the other side and giving you a really nice big hug!!! :)
