Joshua Kenneth Michael Patterson
Born, April 8,1998.
Left this earth, May 25, 2000.

Today would have been, JOSHUA'S 18th Birthday.
He was born April,8,1998. During his short life span, he was in and out of the hospitals many,many times. He came to live with us when he was three weeks old and stayed with us until his death shortly after he became two. His dad, Rick, worked a lot and his mother, Jess, could not cope with his illness. I always admired the fact that they cared enough to let us help. His life was a constant struggle for survival. He touched many and they were drawn to him by his simple angelic quality.
I know he is one of God's Angels and he lives on in God's kingdom, forever and ever.
Happy 18th Birthday Joshua. We all love and miss you. We know you are having a glorious birthday with God and your Heavenly family.
