It's been a minute since I wrote to you sweet boy. I participated in the Out of the Darkness walk last Sunday. It was quite an emotional event. Very happy I did it. Heartbreaking to see all the loss.. I needed to do this for me and honor you.. just when I think I'm going to be ok, another wave hits me with stronger more painful strength. I miss you so very much Joshua.. the holidays are nearly on us, another Thanksgiving, another Christmas without your smile and laughter. I thought i could do it this year. I don't think I can.. I love you, love mom

My dear sweet boy.. 365 heart crushing days ago you chose heaven over earth. When you died a large piece of me died with you. Everyday is a challenge just to get out of bed. You will never know how very much you are loved and missed. Or how truly lost I am without you. Your smile, your laughter, your quick witty sense of humor, your big heart, your sweet kind gestures and yes even your attitude. Everything that made you uniquely you... every morning I wake up and it hits me all over again, you're really gone. How can I ever grasp that, I just can't.. my mind and my heart won't let me. I love you Joshua my sweet boy with all that I am... 💔🕯⏳🦋🍃 RIP my son

Hello my sweet boy.. well you know today is the 4th of July.. one of the worst days of my life, I am so sorry I ruined your 4th of July last year. You didn't see your baby girls and I didn't get to see you. I was so wrong to keep the girls from you and hurt you the way I did. I should have taken the girls to Denver and made up with you so you knew I loved you. But I didn't and you were gone a month later forever.. I am so very sorry. Please forgive me. I love you so very much...💔🕯

Message from AnneMarie Stanton

Hello my sweet son.. it's been a while since I've written.. I miss you so much and my heart still aches just as much as the night you left. It's almost been a year and it's been the worst year of my life, I'm told that time will ease this pain, not so far and I'm not sure i believe time will do anything to ease my heartache. I love you and miss you so very much. I am dreading the 4th of July, I wonder if my choices that day would change things.. 💜💔🕯

Thank you all for the kind words.. Joshua was certainly one in a million.. I pray everyday that he has found peace and comfort with our Lord. And that he sees how much he was truly loved and missed.. my life nor my heart will ever be the same without my precious son here with me... I pray everyday that God will lift me up and carry me through this darkness until we reunite in heaven.

Message from Jill Trujillo (Bertram)

I am deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Josh. I have very fond memories of my son, Brandon, Josh and Billy. Josh always made me laugh. I remember one day sitting in a long line of traffic in Los Lunas. Then in my mirror I see a car driving on the side of the road, passing all traffic. I thought what the heck? Then the car passes. It was Billy, Josh, and Brandon in "The Bean". They didn't want to be late to school. 😊 Josh was always so respectful and hysterical. He will definitely be missed.Thank you for being a good friend to Brandon. R.I.P. Josh! Thoughts and prayers to all the family. 🙏

Josh rest in peace and Thank you for your service.

Of all the qualities that God possesses, love is the most dominant one. He loved us so much that he gave his only begotten Son so that we may live. Life is what he purposed, not death. Soon he will swallow up death forever and remove all the things that cause pain and suffering. Until that time may each of you take comfort in him and in each other.
