It is with sorrow to inform you guys that Josh took his own life this past Saturday morning. He was very loved and will be missed.

It seems that he wanted his final goodbye to be read by the website, so if you want to read it you can here: http://tsunderesoviet.tumblr.com/

For four and half years you were a father figure to me. When I was feeling down, you'd help me out of it, and when you were feeling down, I'd try to do the same. Not everything we did together was good, or smart, but we made mistakes together and quite often we tried to rectify them together, too. Before our relationship deteriorated you were the closest thing to real family I had, and that deterioration was a big hit for me last year. Perhaps it could have been avoided, perhaps not. Fate is often cruel.

You talked about this many times, and I guess I can't say I'm surprised that you eventually did it. I'm sad we never made peace, a regret I will carry for a long time now, but I hope you've found a peace now. May your candle burn brightly tonight and your star burn brightly forever.

Hades judge you well.

Woah, he's gone huh. He was a good guy deep down and I don't think he deserved a lot of the shite he got.

So long and thanks for all the fish, Josh.

Josh, we only spoke for the span of about half a week, but news of your passing has affected me deeply. I'm having trouble collecting my thoughts but I'll try since you deserve that and so much more.

During the time we spoke you were kind, charming, funny, and helpful even. Of course there were some things you said which rubbed me the wrong way, but I could tell despite it all you had a good heart.

I shut you out of my life far too soon for all the wrong reasons. I want badly to give some better sounding excuse but I can't; I was scared of being associated with you. I was supposed to be your friend and instead I turned my back on you like a coward. I'm so sorry.

Rest in peace, Josh.

Hi, I've just been informed of this. I'm Rutab.

Although Eris and I had some disagreements, I am very sorry to his friends, family, and those of you on EpicMafia that were close to him.

Regardless of some recent and previous actions, he seemed to be a good person at heart. He has done one or two things that I will never forget, and for which I will always have respect.

Rest in peace, Josh. May you find happiness with the man upstairs.

I'm so sorry I wasn't there for you more Josh. You are one of my closest friends here. You saved my life this summer and I won't ever forget that. I love you and I wish I could have helped you the same way you helped me. Thank you for everything, you made everything feel like it was going to be okay. May you rest in peace

Roshiez: I love you Josh. I'm so sorry. You're my best friend. My heart hurts. It hurts so much. I'll always have you in my thoughts no matter where life takes me, thank you for being such a good friend and listening to my nonsense whenever I was upset.
