Joshua was a 2016 graduate of Elton High School, where he was a member of the basketball and football team for most of his high school years. He enjoyed gaming and spending time with his brother and sister. Joshua enjoyed a good steak and a homemade apple pie whenever he could get it. His family and friends were everything to him. Joshua was the guardian of his family, the defender of the underdog. He was sarcastic, funny and intelligent. Above all else, he knew he was the favorite! Joshua's memory and spirit will forever live on in the lives of his brother and sister. He will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved him.
