    Josh was my baby cousin. I was 10 or 11 when he was born, so he was like mine and my cousin Mandy's own personal baby doll. He was mommaw's baby and his mom's pride and joy. What I knew about Josh is that he was a free-spirited, kind-hearted, loving person who would give the shirt off his back to anyone. His view of the world was well informed through his life experiences and he was extremely intelligent, so if you planned to get into a battle of the wits with Josh, you had better come armed. LOL! He loved his family hard and he was loyal to a fault but doubted that same loyalty existed in others, as much as people swore they had it. Life is a song – he sang it. Life is a game – he played it. Life is a challenge – he met it. Life is a dream – he realized it. Life is love – he knew it. Life is a sacrifice – he offered it. <3
