Josh's service was last night at funeral home....over 400 people signed in....no
idea of total....black, white, young, old....I met grown men who he mentored when they were young boys....met his high school coaches.....very humbling and gtatifying to see the love and respect for Josh.
Josh played baseball one year in MLB Rookie League...his HS coach said he was one of the best players he ever coached. Bad knee from his football days ended his career.
Funeral is today.... Josh was cremated and part of the ashes will be buried next to his step father and grandfather in a cementary near he and my daughter's home.
Half of his ashes buried in an Auburn urn. He loved Auburn.
Josh will be missed dearly.
==============================
had to extend the hours...I met young adults who told me josh turned their lives around....one black guy said when he was a young teenager he called josh at 3:30am and was in a panic cause he took to many drugs....the kid was basically dead when Josh got there and used CPR to bring him back before the EMT got there. The man was breaking down talking about Josh.
He mainly worked with kids in the projects...he was very active in Boys & Girls Club in Huntsville.
Josh positively impacted so many lives.
