Last night, my beautiful son Josiah and his girlfriend Sophia were taken from us far too soon. They were young, full of life, love, and promise — ready to begin their future together.

Josiah sang, he danced, he acted — he lit up every room he entered and brought laughter to everyone who knew him. Sophia matched his warmth with a beautiful soul and a smile that could brighten the darkest day.

The world feels dimmer without their light. Please keep our family, and Sophia’s, in your thoughts and prayers as we try to find our way through this heartbreak.
