I’m seeing this 2 years after the death of my father and.. i have a loss for words. I’ve never really took time to go deeper into the death of my father but now after an hour or two of reserch i-i just dont know what to say. My whole life I’ve been in fear of looking into it and now i dont know what to say.
still to this very day sweet girl, I have no words to describe the loss, the wrong words, nothing proper, nothing that sounds truly consoling.

I feel your heart break and your grief. I have come to know and love your family… through two dear friends, Marcie (Tackett) Richetta and Sharon (Tackett) Finney. I knew (and loved) Josh’s Grandma, Gay Tackett. So much love and so many prayers have went out for those left behind. As I always tell my kids… Let go of the bad and hold close to your heart all the good (cherished) memories made over the years. Keep looking up… Look to God!
His love will get you through your darkest day.
My prayer: God, we humble ourselves before You, and we ask you to do a mighty work in us and through us, as we proclaim Your name. You alone are God. There is no other Savior. We thank You Lord for everything, we give You the glory. In Jesus name, Amen.
Josh’s passing was sudden and heartbreaking for many. So sorry, and sending prayers for comfort and peace.
It was sudden i will say that much. It added alot of stress onto my back, and I hate to know that my siblings might be going though the same thing I am. Some of us may not show it but we are all under some kinda gref about all this and its not right. I hate to see me suffer but i would prefer me to suffer then the people I love and care about
thank u sis.
I will miss your smile, Josh! I wish you could have stayed here longer, but say hello to your Moma for me.
To all the family, I loved Josh dearly, I am sorry for your loss.
My heart breaks.
Josh I wish I could have seen you one last time Brother you will never be forgotten
So sorry for your loss….My prayers are with you all!
Lord. Please have mercy on this family as we all grieve this loss. We know this world is full of hurt and sorrow that only you Lord can Ease. Be with the Brothers and children as they continue on in life.
I pray that the loss of Josh will not make bitter feelings but soften hearts in a way that only you can do to make a better future for all. I pray we all follow the path to you Lord. Thank you for your shed blood that we can have hope and forgiveness.
I love Josh,as well as, every one of my family. There are some bad things that happen, but many many good. Please remember his loving nature and warm smile. Such a loss . We love you all !!!

Josh I know your life
On earth was troubled
And only you could know the pain.
You weren’t afraid to face the devil,
You were no stranger to the rain.
Go rest high on that mountain
Son, your work on earth is done.
Go to heaven a-shoutin’
Love for the Father and the Son.
Oh, how we cried the day you left us
We gathered round your grave to grieve.
I wish I could see the angels faces
When they hear your sweet voice sing.
Go rest high on that mountain
Son, your work on earth is done.
Go to heaven a-shoutin’
Love for the Father and the Son.
