Josh was laid to rest on Monday, January 31, 2011. He returned to Alabama on Saturday, January 29th. This was one of the hardest, emotionally exhausting, depressing, tear-filled weekends I have endured in a long time. It was truely awe insiring to see how many lives Josh had touched in his life and with his death. I can only hope that I have touched half as many people in my lifetime.
I feel blessed to have had him as a nephew for the short time I did. He was so much like a younger brother to Chris that there were times I had to remind myself that Josh was actually the nephew, not the brother.
I now understand one of my favorite Shakespearean quotes:
"Everyone can master a grief but he that has it."
~Much Ado About Nothing~
I love you, Josh.
