Story

Joshua was a healthy, active and sweet 11-year-old boy until recently when a few seemingly innocuous symptoms resulted in testing that revealed a sinister tumor in his brain. The resulting diagnosis has left the family, community and of course Joshua himself shaken, scared and shocked. DIPG is a rare and very lethal form of pediatric brain cancer. The immediate and extended family of their beloved Joshua had to endure the words nobody ever wants to hear. "Your loved one has a terrible form of brain cancer." Joshua passed away January 15, 2017.
