It’s very hard to talk about him like but I miss him. My wife Carolyn and I went to there house quite often , we have a Boy that’s 4 years younger than Josh. Roger and I would just sit and watch those boys play ! In fact my sister Sharon had the baby while Carolyn and I where on our honeymoon! Roger and I did a lot together those days. Roger was the kind of person who never said a bad word about anything He will be sorely missed ! RIP my brother Emanuel Amato
Josh, I’m so sorry honey for you're loss. Your dad was such a good man, always kind, funny and loved you like no other! He is in heaven with our father Jesus Christ now! I’m always here for you and Courtney. Sending love and hugs to you and your family! Love, Uncle Jeff, Aunt Connie, Dominic, Jeffrey, and Jacob Connie Tiberia
Dear Josh and Entire Family
My wife and I are so sorry to hear our gentle giant has been taken from all who loved him, have known him and have had the pleasure to live with him. I can and will attest that as you get older, your life changes and you move away, get married, have children and so on. Unfortunately we all get caught up in our lives and what use to always be there, is gone within a blink of the eye. We become our parents and the life cycle continues to turn. I am deeply sadden I have lost a dear old friend and did not take the time to stay in contact with him. After hearing this horrible news today, I reached out to an old friend " Rick Trumbull" who he and I both acknowledged, there are very few of us left from the neighborhood. Your father, Rick, Craig, Dave and myself were the misfits in our little bubble of the world. The days seemed to last forever and so was our friendship. I could go on and simply wanted to reach out and express just how sad we are to hear of your loss. If you ever want to talk or even come visit here in SoCal, please give me a call. We pray for everyone in these horrible times in our lives. Stay safe, with love Garry and Cynthia Mears. Garry Mears
Josh, words can't explain how sorry I am for your loss. I know what you are going through. And trust me when I say things do get better, it truly is possible. I personally went through denial for at least a year, then it really hit me, then for a short time I was mad at my dad for leaving. But once I thought long and hard about it, it was best for him. Being in pain and everything else, is not a way of life. It wouldn't be fair for your dad to suffer. He is resting in peace now. And you will see signs, little signs, that will let you know he's still with you and loves you more than anything. After six years now, I still see them. Like many have said, you will feel okay, then just the smallest of things will remind you and hit you so close to your heart. Eventually you'll look forward to those things. I know your dad was very proud of who you've become. And loved you so so much. Try and hang in there, please let us know if you need anything at all and please don't be a stranger >>lots of hugs<< Hillari
Josh and family I can’t express my sadness at the passing of Roger. What a great man he was always had a little smile on his face always kind always loving his son. Josh I’m so sorry for your loss I know how close you were with your dad and he loved you so much and always will. Sending love and prayers for healing to you. Love you , Aunt Karen & Uncle Terry Jess Ken & Zach Karen Gill
Josh,
What’s going to happen is, six months will go by, and people will think, well it has passed. But you’re going to drive by a golf course, or a lake and spot a fisherman, or see a flashing image of your dad, and you will feel just like the day you got the news. But you know you’re going to make it when the image of your dad crosses your mind, and a smile comes to your face before a tear to your eye. And I give you my word, I promise you, this I know, that day will come. That day will come. I love you Josh......
Aunt Jill Jill Pattenaude
