Condolences to friends and family. I used to play video games at Josh’s and Aaron’s house when they lived in Evansville, late 1990s. Can’t specially recall playing D&D with him, but I’m sure I did. The dude will be missed.
Joe Dewig says
Like one of the family. Loved by all of us and will be greatly missed. I will miss our ‘dork’ and ‘geek’ conversations we had about comics and wrasslin. We could spend hours talking and joking about anything. Always had something funny to say. Love you bud

I ran with Josh and Aaron during a Zombie Obstacle Course in Knightstown, IN. We were what you call survival buddies. I remember when Josh would get tired, we would wait for him to get his breath back, and he would just keep fighting on like a trooper. I’m gonna miss talking to him and seeing his life in pictures. Safe travels, buddy ❤️
