It is with heavy hearts that we say goodbye to Josh Duncan who was far too clever to be ordinary and far too stubborn to be forgotten. Known for a razor-sharp wit and perfectly timed sarcasm, he had a way of making people laugh. His humor was never just for the joke it was how he connected, how he comforted, and how he reminded everyone not to take life too seriously. Beneath the sarcasm was a deeply caring soul and a God-loving man. He lived life on his own terms and loved his people fiercely especially his son Mason. His faith gave him strength, his humor gave others joy, and his presence gave comfort to those around him. Though he may be gone from our sight, his voice will live on in every sarcastic remark, every shared laugh, and every moment that reminds us to hold tight to faith, family, and love. His absence leaves a silence that cannot be filled, but his memory leaves a warmth that will never fade.
