Josh was a 2010 graduate of Wapakoneta Senior High and then attended Columbus State University.  He loved playing baseball, listening to music and being outdoors.  His favorite teams were the Cleveland Indians and the Indianapolis Colts.  He was employed as a welder at Brown’s Industrial, Botkins.  Josh was always very likeable and made friends with everybody.  He was a loving son, brother and father but most of all Josh’s greatest blessing in life was being a father to his son, Hoyer.
