3 years ago...... I carried my baby brother to his finally resting.
For all of us, a time to remember,,,, simply what one can do to
help others and share what we have learned.
USMPK9.......OUT!!!
This old "War Dawg Handler" was once known for extrapulated musings....
now I remind you of what IS the foundation of JEEPZ...
and what a true Legacy means....
our founding brothers and sisters wrote the following..
take some time and following the past in honoring those
who have gone before us... to blaze the trail.
Tug and pull:
Sure am glad to see this post again. There are factabout each of you that need to be reviewed again from time to time. Many of the members have not post on this one yet and would love to see a bit more about each of you. This is one of my presonal all time favorit post cause it goes a bit deeper than most into the people that make jeepz a great place to hang out! tug
SNITTY:
ok, first i must touch up on something i've seen said repeated often in this topic... "I don't know him personally"... ok, no, most of us have not met him physically... but personally, we all have... his person, the person he lived as, the person who we will continue to keep as an influence to us being exactly what/where/who we are at any moment. We may not have ever met his physical body, but we have all come to know his character. An impact one makes on another is not due to having met the matter a person is made of, but rather the interaction one has with another. And that includes the information, humor, criticism, and all words we've ever recieved from Josh. And that is exactly what has brought every one of us here at Jeepz.com to feel the impact of this tragedy. A tragedy which has taken away a great part of this group.. and being a memeber of this group, I can personally feel exactly what was taken away. The life of any person is something that we wish we could always hold, but will always have to let go of eventually. But yet, his personality, his character, the information he has provided, the humor and sarcasm he incorporated in his statements, that has not left us, that is all something we are able to hold on to. And something I am sure we will all keep, and hold with high respect.
To all of you, if you are a believer in a higher life than what we live on this earth, remember to include in your prayers every person he has impacted, and the people who interacted with him during his life, most of all, his friends and family. Remember that he is now off to a head start in a much better life.
If you are not a believer, please think of the ways that he has interacted with the people in his life. Think of the ways he interacted with your life, being a very active member in this group. If you are not a believer in that he will move to a much better place, then please help keep his character alive, help keep the person he was, continue to be a part of our lives.
On Sep 23, 2002, Josh joined Jeepz.com and has since been a great influence in helping every member. He made sure to comment and touch on every post he possibly could, whether informative, sarcastic, or just to give the feel that someone DOES care about our questions, no matter how complicated, easy, or silly the question was... In under a year, he has spent a LARGE amount of time with us members here... Who is with me on showing his loved ones at home a symbol of our appreciation in form of a gift?
But I know he's wheelin' that Mountain up in Heaven. We'll miss you J.!
