I was so sorry to hear of the loss of your husband Josh. I sign up the substitute teachers at OPSB.

The Lord is the comforter, and I pray he strengthens you in the days ahead.

What a terrible loss for everyone, especially the youth in this area! I knew Josh as a student at OCS and loved him even then! My grandson, Ethan Broadway had the wonderful experience of working with Josh as a football coach and loved him from then on. Please let us know if we can do anything but know that all of you are in our prayers.

A finer young man I did not know. Josh so loved his wife and son and church. He worked through adversity and we were all SO PROUD of him. We miss you Josh but will see you soon. I hope you will be wearing an LSU shirt at the gate!

When I think of Josh I think of a smiling, uplifiting, sharing young man that always had time for everyone else. Josh was a friend to all and an awesome leader. Phyllis my heart aches for you,I cannot imagine going through what you are now. Meredith and Will, Josh will be remembered always with a smile. Praying God will comfort you through all the days ahead. Sending love and prayers.
Peace of mind is a call away. We're here when you need us most.
'Mr. Gene and Ms.' Robin Bartlett left a message on December 11, 2012:
Josh came into our lives when he was in middle school at Mobile Christian. Josh and our children became really good friends - a friendship that continued even after his family left Mobile. Josh was always 'my other son' in my heart. I drove Josh and Thad home after football practice -we always rode with the windows open, no matter what the weather, because those two sweaty boys smelled so bad! All of the girls in the car demanded that! Great memories of a great kid who grew into a Great Man. Our hearts ache for all the family and friends who loved Josh. He will always be loved and remembered by Mr Gene, Ms Robin, Thad, Temple, Buffy and their families. We Love You Josh.

Meredith - Although I never got to know you, Josh spoke of you every time Bret and I had lunch with him or he came to the house to watch "the fights." He was a sweet man with such a "bubbly" personality. We will miss him dearly. ...our thoughts and prayers are with you and Will. Jackie & Bret

Meredith and Will we are so sorry for your loss. Our hearts mourn with you as well as hope with you. We have many fond memories of Kevin and Josh and Benji playing crazy pranks on us and always having us laughing. Josh had a heart as big as his smile. He will be missed by the countless people his loving heart gave to over his short life. May God walk with you through every step of the journey called grief and into the knowledge that you were treasured by this man.
