Joshua Andrew Brady, known affectionately as Jursh, passed away on August 6, 2023, in Douglasville, GA, at the age of 35. He was born on March 29, 1988, in Warsaw, New York. Joshua was a beloved father, son, brother, uncle, nephew, cousin, and friend who touched the lives of many with his kindness, talent, and vibrant personality.
Joshua was a pillar of love and support to his family and friends. His mother, Melissa, was the center of his world, and he brought endless joy to her life. His father, Scott, beamed with pride whenever he saw Joshua's vibrant spirit shine. Joshua's siblings held a special place in his heart. He shared a close bond with his older sister Samantha, who considered him her best friend and sidekick. He had many jam sessions with his younger brother Joey who played the drums while Josh “slapped the bass, man”. He also protected his younger sister Britney and was always there for her. Joshua's nieces, Alexis and Destiny, adored their "goofball" uncle who could always make them laugh and smile.

His love for music was a testament to his dynamic personality and creative spirit. Music was Joshua's passion and outlet for self-expression. He was a talented musician who played multiple instruments, including the bass, trombone, drums, and even had a beautiful singing voice. Joshua's musical talent brought joy to those around him, whether he was playing for hours in his dad's garage or entertaining crowds at shows throughout Georgia and his hometown in Batavia, New York.
Joshua's impact extended beyond his immediate family. He touched the lives of everyone he met, leaving lasting impressions of warmth, happiness, and inspiration. He had a big heart and a brilliant mind, always challenging others to grow and better themselves. Joshua's selflessness was evident as he prioritized helping others above his own needs, even during his own personal struggles.
