Joshua Allen Parrish went home to be with the Lord on Nov. 1, 2008. After courageously fighting a 15-month battle with cancer, he passed away, surrounded by his family and friends.

Josh was born to Charles and Nanci Parrish on April 19, 1980. He was born in Benson, Ariz., but he was raised in Sierra Vista, Ariz. There he graduated from Buena High School in 1998 and attended Cochise College. He was a member of First Baptist Church.

Josh was a dedicated husband and father and took his strength from his family and faith in God. He made his family the center of his life and lived to support and raise his two children. Josh is an example of strength and selflessness.

For the last nine years Josh supported the U.S. Army Information Systems Engineering Command (ISEC) as a contractor and as a civil servant. His hard work, knowledge, and dedication to the U.S. Army and the soldiers his efforts supported were recognized by his superiors and co-workers.

Josh was an avid four wheeler and frequently enjoyed the rugged Southern Arizona outdoors from his 4X4. He supported the off-road community by co-hosting the Wheeling Arizona Web forum. His contribution to this community was repaid when countless members of Wheeling Arizona teamed up to help complete Josh's Land Cruiser project when he became sick. Their efforts will forever be appreciated by Josh and his family.

Josh is survived by his wife, Rosalyn; two sons, Aiden and Ethan; mother and father, Charles and Nanci Parrish of Sierra Vista; half-sister, Angie (Jim Caza)of Florida; sister, Julie (Jeff Crowley) of Sierra Vista; grandmother, Deloria Parrish of Sierra Vista; father-in-law and mother-in-law, Frank and Gilma Santos of Sierra Vista; and numerous nephews, nieces, aunts, uncles, and cousins.

He is preceded in death by his maternal grandparents, Howard and Elsie Rich of Pennsylvania and paternal grandfather, Charles Parrish of Sierra Vista.

A memorial service will take place on Friday, Nov. 7, 2008, at 1:30 p.m. at the Main Post Chapel on Fort Huachuca.
