In Loving Memory of Joshua Boyd Heisey, 12 years old, born March 13, 2008 (on his mother’s birthday). Joshua means “God Is My Salvation”. Boyd means “Strong” and is the name also shared by his great-grandpa.
Joshua was a fun-loving and outgoing young man. He was an avid reader, very mechanical, and had interest in wildlife & nature. Joshua accepted Jesus Christ as his personal Savior and was baptized when he was 6 years old.
He passed away as a result of a farming accident on Thursday, December 17, 2020, in the Penn State Hershey Medical Center. In addition to his parents, he is survived by 5 siblings, paternal grandparents, maternal grandparents, 2 great- grandparents and many aunts, uncles & cousins.
“Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.” Joshua 1:9
Many people all over the world prayed for a miracle of healing for Joshua to return home to our family, but instead, Joshua was able to give a Christmas miracle to other families. We are grateful for the hope of eternal life and the promise that we will be reunited someday in heaven.
