65 memories of Joshua R. Whittle
Josh was a good friend of mine during high school and he was a strong minded individual. He never gave into peer pressure and always kept a positive outlook on life. He loved going to hardcore shows and he was an over all free spirited friend. I will forever hold JOsh aka MD in my memories and he will always share a place in my heart. I LOVE YOU MD!!! WE WILL BE MISSING YOUUUU

Shows, funny car rides, and the good times we had. ill always think of you when i see an American flag because to me you are an American hero, who died for our freedom. Thank You. rest in paradise little brother.

Words cannot express the depth of my sadness over the death of Joshua. I know how much he was loved as I have worked with his father for 20 years.
May God hold him in his hands and bless him forever.
May God please give his family strength.
God Bless you Josh, and your sacrifice will never ever be in vain.

I did not get to meet this young man! All though I do wish to send all his Family and Friends my deepest condolences! My son is also a MARINE and is stationed in Hawaii KANEOHE BAY. He also was deployed with Josh. May God hold on tight to Joshes hand and may he Bless his Family and Friends.. God Bless you. Mother of John Rene Brodit a MARINE in Bakwa Afganistan.

He was one of my best friends, and i still can't believe the news. We were at six flags the day before you left, and i can honestly say that it will be one of my fondest memories. Just thinking about all the times we walked to chipotle during summer, hiking to monkey's canyon, all the shows, and just wrestling and fighting with you you were my brother and i'll miss you.

Josh,
You weren't in Afghanistan for a month before you were taken from us. It just isn't fair. I've spent a cumulative 20 months over 3 deployments out here, and if I could take your place I would. I'll remember you from years ago. I only wish I could have known you better recently. You're death is wholly depressing, and many lives aren't going to be the same with you gone. Those lives will never recover. Our loss is too great.

Dear Josh, "MD" I am writing this note as if you were still here because I don't think I could endure it to think that you have left us. I know we will see each other again in heaven it's just that it wont be soon enough for me. The year and a half the you stayed with our family I will treasure forever. Josh wanted to stay in Downey, CA to graduate with the friends he grew up with, but his family had moved to Fontana, CA. So, without hesitation our took him in and he became apart of our family and us a part of his. I will miss you "MD"! Thank you for your courage and bravery I would also like to thank those that took care of him when he got hurt and to the fellow marines that he was deployed with. I also know that being a Marine was more important to "MD" than anything. It doesn't surprise me that he was on point. He was always rushing in head first thinking more for others that himself. I love you Joshua and I don't know what we are all going to do without you. I love you, your other mother. Lorie

It's hard saying good bye to someone that always greeted you with a warm hug and big beautiful blue eyes. Joshua Whittle was an individual that always cared for others and put other before himself. I believe he did not die in vain. I believe he is in a better place, I just wish he was still in this world with us.

Josh, I remember meeting you before you left for boot camp. 
I could sense a bit of power and charisma from you.
This war has taken a lot of things from all of us. Thank you for your service and your sacrifice.
I'm only sad that I couldn't join you out there sooner.
R.I.P. Marine and be at peace with God

We all miss you and love you very much and are forever thankful for the sacrifice that you have made for our country. your spirit will live on my brother. i love you and i will never forget you.

Although I did not have the privilege of knowing you as well as so many of your brave friends, I feel a sense of extreme loss. I will never let another person teach me to shoot a gun "like a man". You are in my prayers at least three times a day. Please be with your family and your friends. We all love you, Josh. That is never going to stop. You died a hero, even though you were a hero all a long. Save a spot for me, babe.

DEAR JOSH,
Words cannot describe the emotions that we all feel towards you and your dedication to protecting this country. I remember back in school when we first called you "MD" cause you look like Matt Damon, durring the time we spent together at Downey CDS we always joked around and had fun. You are an inspiration to us all, I myself am going to the military soon and am dedicating my service time to you my brother. YOU WILL FOREVER BE IN OUR HEARTS AND NEVER FORGOTTEN.
— Eleazar Fuentes

Josh,
You were one heck of a guy. You loved your friends and family so much and that is so admirable. I was so heart broken when I heard of your passing. You were always such a genuinely nice person. I admire your courage and passion to serve in the military. I was driving around Downey today and I notice all American Flags where at half mass. In honor of you. I've always been patriotic but it's never meant so much to me. We didn't hang out with the same friends but you were still so welcoming. It's not fair that you had to go at such a young age, so full lof life and dreams, but you will forever be remembered for your bravery, love and your passion. Thanks for fighting the big fight.
When I first heard about you passing, I didn't think I would so heart broken, but your passing has effected me deeply. It's been a great pleasure knowing you. God Bless

i will hold on to what you believed, in my soul ,and live with you as my angel while i still walk this planet as you cannot anymore. I knew you as MD , two letters that i later found out originated from him looking like Matt Damon but, the presence and positive hero type vibe josh had gave those two letters strength, MD was truly a soldier and a hero before he joined the marines. i just think about all the shows we would raise hell at,ALL IN THE NAME OF FUN , off coarse!
=)
MD FOREVER

I'll never forget our 'walks to remember' or the way you used to hold my hand and kiss me at the skate park, even though the homies always teased us about it. You were a sweetheart and I'll never forget those pretty eyes. I'm truly humbled by the sacrifice you made for all of us and we all owe you. You're our hero, MD. We've already been missing you and we're not gonna stop. I love you. Rest in peace.

It is so unfortunate that the young and innocent can be stripped away from our lives in a blink of an eye. We may ask why but usually never get an answer. Just keep in mind that everything happens for a reason. Even when it doesn't seem fair or right, there is always a reason. Josh, you had such a beautiful heart and soul. Even though you are not here, you're presence will always remain. My Father who has passed served as a soldier in Vietnam. He always said that when he dies he will be a soldier for God. He said that when heaven and hell meet for battle he will be there in front fighting for Christ. You will be there as well, Josh. Fighting for good. Remember, good will always triumph over evil. You will always be a hero, a fighter, and a United States Soldier. God bless you, Josh. May you rest in peace our loved one.

Dear Josh,
Your passing is something that has greatly affected everybody. I heard about it the day you passed away, and I chose to not believe it because I wanted to know you were still coming home. I did nothing that day but dwell on the fact that you could be gone, and I wont be graced with your presence anymore, however you will be in peace.
Your passing is something that wont ever be healed. I sit and hold onto my chest because I have a broken heart. I sit and think about you and tears run down my face because it shouldn't have been you.
My prayers go out to your family, because they loved you so much, and they miss you more then anything. If i could trade places with you and give you back to all your family and friends, i would.
I love you Joshua Whittle. See you someday.

A day doesn't go by when I don't think of you. Whenever I'm driving I look at your dog tag hanging from my rearview mirror and I talk to you.I get chipotle at least once a week for you, and I can never finish it because I start to cry when I remember you. I'm in a crappy relationship, and I can't seem to get out of it. Each night I come home I start to cry because I wish I had someone as great as you to call my own. So many people loved you, and that degree of love doesn't matter when it was someone as great as you. You touched and moved so many people, especially me. If I could trade places with you and give you back to your mom, I would. She loves you so much, and I hope you visit her as often as you can because she is such a good women with such a good heart. I love you joshua r whittle.

Ohh my MD . I miss you so much. My heart aches. 4th of July just passed. Brought back so many memories with youvand fireworks, you were absolutly in love with making the biggest boom!! Just last 4th of July you were at our house like normal causing rukkas.. and we were walking in the house together and I had seen fire crakers in your hand .. I was like ohh no what are you going to do with that?! You looked and me and said just watch.. You stand right outside my brothers room while he was laying on his bed and you light the firecrakers and throw it in his room and close the door and run so fast and laugh so hard and hid under my blackets in my bed because you knew that Daniel was going to come after you .. Gosh you always were laughing , and even though sometimes I was so mad at you for play fighting too hard with me or catching me and took pictures of me when I was waxing my lip .. Haha .. I still love you like my own brother because you loved me like I was your real sister, and I miss you so much MD. Come see me in my dreams and talk to me . I love you so much . Ps. I found your YMCA card .. :-( I forgot it said Joshua Palma on it.

So it has now been two months since you have been taken away from us, and the pain of you being gone is still as heart breaking as when i first found out. As everyone has already stated on here, you were a hero, and you will always be remembered. today of most days is difficult for me because i cant stop thinking of you. i love you joshua r whittle, and im sorry. I hope your family is doing well. Please, watch over us, and visit us.

August 10, 2009 at 11:27 a.m.
Hey Honey,
Today like most days is hard. I was looking at your myspace and read what your mom had written. It completly broke my heart. I don't even like turning on the TV because if a news broadcast is on all you hear about is the dealth tolls rising in these middle eastern countires. I wish there was some way or somehow time can just be turned back and bring you back to us. I thank you so much for serving our country, but the selfish part in me wishes that you never became a Marine. And I feel so stupid even thinking something like that because I know how prideful you were to become a UNITED STATES MARINE. I really honor and cherish the memories that we have had and I have an aching heart because I wish I didnt take time for granted. It's true what they say baby 'You dont realize what you have until it is gone." Josh, you really have helped me become a stronger person and live each day to the fullest. I was actually just looking into bungie jumping too and i want to make it a tribute to you sweetie. Ive been meaning to visit you. But things have just been so hectic with work and school, time isn't my friend right now. But I will visit you, and I will bring by some chipotle and eat it for you. Heck, I might even get that today. Please be with your mom in this time. I know I say that each time I write in here, and each time I pray at night, but she is hurting and I just wish her pain would go away, and that she would just live remotly happy. Remind her that you love her, come in her dreams and embrace her baby. I love you.

Thank you for visiting me in my dreams the other night. It was very peacful. You showed up on my door step and said " I'm home, lets eat." and I said " What would you like me to cook."and you said "I've been in afgan for three months you think I want to eat your cooking, lets go to Chipotle!!." So there we went, and then I woke up as we got our food. We didn't even get to eat it together.... I miss you. That day I went to chipotle and got something to eat, I ate half of my food for you. <33 it felt real.

I haven't been on here in a while to write to you. Life has been hectic. But I am constantly thinking about you. I always see this boy that resembles you and I have to catch my breath because I always think your back. I always think about your big blue eyes and your smile. I hope those wonderful eyes are watching down on your loved ones and that smile is what keeps our hearts pounding. Whenever I see a USMC commercial my eyes water. I love you

Its been one year since we lost our Fallen Hero. Your sacrifice for your country, family and friends will NEVER be forgotten and we all appreciate what you did. We will always remember you, and the troops who also lost their lives the same date in 1944, when the US landed in Normandy during WWII. You are truly missed, MD. As a friend, a brother, a hero.
I hope to serve as a Straight Edge Marine because of you
RIP LCpl Joshua "" Whittle

Josh,
i still cant believe your gone. From the moment i met you and said you were the little twin of my brother, up until the time we were living at the same house, still seems so alive to me. I think about you everyday. I think about you throwing me in the pool with my clothes on, everyday! Or me and lindsey counting all our bruises that you and daniel gave us. Those are our favorite memories ya know. Thank you for serving our country. Thank you for being a great friend. I know ill see you again.
