I had the honor to have Josh as a student in middle school. It was remarkable to see the growth that he made. He was a hard worked and a very pleasant young man. Sending thoughts and prayers to his family in this very difficult time.

I have had the pleasure of knowing Josh since kindergarten. I watched him grow and mature and strive for excellence in all that he did. He overcame many challenges and was an inspiration to all who knew him. My deepest sympathy goes out to his loving family who were his strongest advocates.

Josh was an inspiration to me. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of his life. I remember all the excitement he always shared when exciting things happened in your family (updating your kitchen was one of them) and his greatest level of respect for me as a teacher. I remember he just 'happened' to ride his bike past me as I was packing my car when I left Oshkosh from teaching and being SO happy I was able to tell him myself and that I got to see him one last time before I left. I knew I was going to miss him greatly. He was an awesome person who had such a big heart. I send my sincerest condolences. Prayers of strength to your family. With love, Sabrina Jerome and Family ❤️
We met the Perry's when our daughter and Josh were in kindergarten together and they were the best of friends. Josh was Meredith's first "boyfriend" and it's something that still makes us smile today. We left Oshkosh many years ago but the Perry family, and especially Josh, have stayed close to our hearts. The countless memories we have of school days, trips to Little Farmer, pizza dinners and birthday parties will always be cherished. Sending love and wishing you comfort.

I had the pleasure of meeting Josh when he was bowling at T&O with Tyler Baehman. What a nice young man! No words can express how sorry we are for the tragic loss of Josh. We are sending hugs and prayers to your entire family.
