Where do you start with such a special soul? After your first meeting with Josh, your takeaway would be how funny he is. He would keep you laughing with his quick wit and quips. Then when you got to know him better, you couldn't help but love him. His enthusiasm for all his favorite things was contagious - movies (horror was his all-time favorite), comics (especially Neil Gaiman's Sandman), all types of music, Superheroes (but it was really the Supervillains he preferred), Star Wars, Pro Wrestling (he really liked Will Ospreay and Kenny Omega, the Kenny Omega vs. Okada match was one of his favorites) and so many more. He'd capture you and make you into a superfan, too.  Then you'd get to see his tremendous love for his wife, Amy, their 2 dogs, Ripley and Vesper, and their 5 cats, Fred, George, Loki, Gemma, and Harley. Josh loved spending time with them and traveling with Amy. Doing everything he could to support Amy and work toward their goals was very important to him. He would also treat you to the best damn meal you ever had. His holiday meals, chili, lasagna, pulled pork, and so many others would have you waiting for your next invite. If you were lucky, you would then get an invite to go to an Orioles baseball game with him. He loved being a season ticket holder and loved sharing that experience with his family and friends. Josh had such a giving heart. There are so many lives he touched, and he will live forever through us and our memories.
