Not too many details as of yet. Prayers for his friends and family
Snippet from Go Fund Me for his funeral:
"His true passion was ice dancing, where he achieved so much in such a short time. Through his complete commitment to this sport, Josh was able to compete at a national level with his partner, Mila. The team competed as a final competitor in the 2019 Intermediate U.S. Figure Skating competition and recently were competitors in the 2022 Junior Ice Dance U.S. Figure Skating Championship Series. His love of the sport was undeniable. Josh defied the odds and rose to a high level as a national competitor because of his tenacity, courage, and relentless hard work! He was a rising star in the skating community, one of the brightest for the future of U.S. ice dancing!"
