I Love You Joshua Scott Diehl
You will forever be apart of me that is unimaginable, unpredictable and Never, Ever, Ever FORGOTTEN!!!! Mom
Josh and I had met just a little over a year ago but quickly grew to be very good friends in a short time. It started when he was introduced to Foosball that we would become teammates and spent hours practicing. Never had I known anyone with his drive to learn and get better. We would play Foosball for hours into the night until exhausted but happy that we had mastered something new. Recently Josh had become my roommate and I noticed that he applied that same driving force to everything in his life. Josh was not just a dreamer but doer and I told him that I envied him to be so young and to know what he wanted in life. In the end it was Josh that taught me so much about life and I am so grateful to have known him.
My broken heart is bleeding & so many Hearts are hurting.
Joshua gave me the most Beautiful memories to cherish for a Lifetime.
Josh was humble & down to earth. He was that special kind of guy in your Life that makes u laugh a little louder, cry little less, smile a little brighter & made Life a whole lot better .
We met by chance, U & that crack head dog Cache changed my life forever. From the ocean of Laguna Beach, Ca to the big Red Rock mountains of Colorado. U took me on the most Amazing Colorado adventures from sunrise to sunset.U shared the the joy of baking & cooking bc I sure can’t cook. U showed me how to play foosball & enjoyed silly Dragon Ball Z.

Because of u, my Life is So much more Beautiful
U are so much more than Life ,
I’ll Love u forever with all my Heart ❤️!!!
This guy... Never have I ever met someone who was more focused and determined than Josh Diehl. When it came to to literally and metaphorically "Going The Distance", this guy could make it look graceful and as easy as walking to the kitchen. As a kid, we grew up in the absolutely gorgeous area known as Springfield Township in Pennsylvania. Josh lived down on Passer rd,a mile or so away from my home. Between our houses was a utility easement, which acted as our personal highway between friends houses, being that all of us kids in the neighborhood seemed to grow dirtbikes out of our legs, and the king of the township didn't like these mutants on the paved roads. Almost everyday, during summer vacation, Josh, a handful of other neighbors and myself would meet up to ride the pipeline, build forts and play paintball/ airsoft and build "MX tracks" throughout our small colony.
Josh also loved bicycling growing up. As kids, before we were able to drive obviously, Josh and I would bicycle to the Subway in Coopersburg to get sandwiches. Other times, Josh would talk me into all day riding events, which would leave me sore for days, all the while Josh would bounce back after a night of sleep, seemingly unaffected by the prior day's tour. He just never got tired. And you'd never find him inside, unless he's eating or sleeping, you could almost guarantee he wasn't in the house. Josh absolutely loved being outside, and if given the opportunity, I was almost certain he'd be the happiest man on Earth, living in a cabin, with his dogs, somewhere deep in the wilderness.
Josh was also a very strong personality. The man had a plan, and he stuck to it, never ceasing to improve himself in everyway possible. To this day I will never understand why anyone would want to run 30 miles a day, but he did, and made it look easy, and after a 10 minute conversation with him about it, would make me start to want to run a marathon.
More than anything else though, I will say that this family is one of compassion and understanding, Throughout all of theb times that I had spent with Josh, was a difficult time in my own life. As a friend, Josh was a figure of inspiration to keep going and stay focused on the positive and above all else, stay constantly pushing to be a better person. Being able to spend the countless amount of days, with such a driven family unit, had altered the path of which I was headed , and ultimately is a huge part of who I am today.
Josh had as spontaneity to him, especially when it involved some sort of adventure. We never really had any clue what he had planned, but we always knew it'd be fun. If this absense of Josh is any sign of that, then wherever he is now, he's definitely having a damn good time.
My heart breaks knowing that Josh left this earth early. I met Josh and his brother in my SCUBA class and they joined us on ski trips to Maine and sand volleyball at our home. Our lives are made up of moments experiences, memories and connections with others. Meeting, knowing, experiencing, connecting with and making memories with Josh enriched our lives! May God Bless you Josh. Thank you for being you! We will all see you again soon!
It’s nearly impossible to find the right words to honor Josh. His unconditional friendship was such a blessing to me, but especially to Tommy. Though not blood related, the two of them were brothers through and through. Josh left a huge hole here when he left this life. What he left behind was a legacy filled with adventure and love. He loved the people in his life wholeheartedly and always made time to reconnect, no matter how many miles were in between them. He lived every day to the fullest, never letting fear hold him back. He taught us so much in his short 27 years. Josh lives in the hearts of those who loved him and we promise to keep his memory alive for the rest of our lives.
You gave no one a last farewell, Nor ever said good-bye. You were gone before we knew it, and only God knows why. I miss you and I cried when you passed away, I still cry today. No words can describe how sorry I am for your loss. I have so much memories with you and our family miss everything about you. Even though I can't see you, when I look up at the twinkling stars, I know you are still shinning somewhere too.
You will always be in my heart. Rest In Peace!
There are so many memories with you. I’m not sure I can choose one. I treasured every single moment I ever spent with you. You were my world. Your big charming smile captured everyone’s attention from Pennsylvania to California. But as you got older, I loved to watch your determination on figuring out computers, phones, bicycles and motorcycles to motor vehicles. If it can be built, Joshua was the one to tear it apart to figure it out. Even if it wasn’t his to tear apart. But recently he had found a new love for the game Foosball. He was determined to become very competitive. This is the same for Joshua’s love of the outdoors and motorcycles. This picture represents a few of Joshua’s reason to Always seek new Horizons. The sky wasn’t high enough. I will love and miss you the rest of my life. Love Mom
