I met Josh when I was in middle school. I remember hanging out with friends at the Trance Buddha and seeing his band, the Side Project, play many shows. All of us became friends and I always looked forward to seeing them play and hanging out. This was such a pivotal point in my life, as well as for so many other people. We were young kids growing up, figuring out life, cracking jokes, making mistakes, enjoying music, but most importantly creating friendships and bonds that would last for a lifetime. Looking back, I never would have thought that I would still maintain friendships with all of these people-but we did. And it grew, I have had so many amazing and cherished memories with Josh and all of the people I met around him. I remember crying in the bathroom when the Hometeam broke up and played their last show, only for Francine to come around in time. None of us wanted this time of our lives to end and we all have held onto it, reliving past experiences. Even though life got in the way I still was so happy to see Josh whenever I ran into him, or chatted online, whatever it may be. He was such a kind, sweet, loving person and I can't say a bad word about him. A year could go by and he would welcome me with open arms and a big smile. Losing him has been a very strange feeling, as though losing part of my adolescence. I can't imagine how his family must feel.. And Eric, I want you to know I will always welcome you with the same grace as Josh had bestowed on me. We were all part of each other growing up and I don't want to lose any more of that feeling. I have been listening to the hometeam's cd and it's bringing me way back. I'm glad I have the memories I do and I wouldn't change a second of it. His spirit will live on through all of us. I give all my love, strength, and condolences to everyone in the Strout family.
From the bottom of my heart,
Erin <3

The Strout family has been on my mind since hearing the news this week. Josh was a big part of our lives for several years and my heart is heavy when I think of what you all are going through.

Josh, you brought light into my life during one of my darkest times. I'll never forget how hard we would laugh together and dancing in my living room. I always loved that your best friends were your brothers and how close you were with your sister. You loved and adored your nephews, that was one of my favorite things about you. Even through our relationship was brief, we always wished the best for each other. Cheryl, Jeff, Nichole, Chris and Eric, my thoughts are with you and I'm sending you all my love.

Josh was one in a million. His smile could light up the darkest situations and I will never forget all the times I shared with him. My heart goes out to his family and each one of the people that he's become friends with throughout the years.

I wish I were able to say goodbye, and I'm sure all of his friends agree with that. My heart is broken knowing that myself and others that cared deeply for him aren't able to get the closure I think we all deserve.

You will live on forever in our hearts. We will never stop loving you, sharing memories of you and thinking about the good times we've all shared.

I know wherever you are.. you are making a huge impression and smiling down on the ones you love.

To the brightest light, keep on shining. YA BOI!
