In loving memory of Joshy

Donation protected
On October 22, 2020,  my cousin Josh passed away very suddenly. When Josh was 2 he was diagnosed with a rare disorder called Pelizaeus-Merzbacher, this  disease is a disorder that affects the brain and spinal cord. The doctors gave him until 12 to live, but he surpassed that by 32 years.  God let us keep him so much longer than was expected but he needed his angel back, where it is hard for everyone here Joshy could not walk or talk on earth but I know he had a lot to say.  Now he is running in heaven and I am sure he hasn't stopped talking since he got there.  Josh never knew a stranger, he would greet everyone with a smile and those sparkling big brown eyes.  He loved country music especially Alabama when they would come on her would holler, yell, throw his arms up into the air, and I think he was singing along to the songs.  He loved animals and they loved him they would always snuggle up beside him.  He had a giant heart and took nothing for granted.  Since this happened so suddenly money is needed for his services, the funeral home will not start the process until the money is paid in full.  I know that this year has been a crazy one and times are tough for a lot of people but please help in anyway you can. Josh wasn't just my cousin he was my brother.
