Joshua, my boy. Today, marks a month we (your family) got the devastating news that you were gone. Why? I struggle with the though everyday that I will never see my handsome Joshua. I call out your name everyday and just breakdown and cry. Joshua, I was so proud of you when you played hockey, you were so smart in everything you did and your pictures of your favourite goalie Hellebuyck. Joshua, you will always be my boy, your auntie Debbie loves more than you will ever know, you have and always had a special place in my heart. I can still hear you asking, auntie can we go to Tim’s and get an ice cap and that was every time I picked you up. I enjoyed spending time with you, even when you were Mr. know it all! Go rest high on that mountain, Joshua Love your auntie Debbie - Posted by: Debra Swampy (Auntie) on: Nov 17, 2022

I had a privilege to grow up with Josh, He was my favourite cousin we’d do everything together. I was truly sad when I heard my friend passed just knowing I’m not gonna see him till my time hurts. I’ll always remember the little things about Josh from playing hockey with him to playing with Batman toys in the basement I will cherish all my memories with Joshua till we meet again. Till then stay safe, love you - Posted by: Jden ((cousin)) on: Nov 14, 2022

I attended school with Josh from kindergarten to graduation. We spent our childhood growing up together. I was never close with Josh, but hearing of his passing truly broke my heart. Josh was quite and kind. He was passionate about the things he loved and that was evident. Knowing josh for 13 years of my life, being in the same class as him 8 out of those 13 years, I can say Josh was a beautiful soul who treated everyone equally. I can only hope Josh’s family is able to find peace and remember Josh in life, not in death. my condolences. - Posted by: taylor (classmate ) on: Nov 09, 2022
