Joshua was a great son in law and a wonderful husband. My daughter Kendra is devastated and the fact that Alexis will not know her daddy will break my heart until the day I see him again. We have many wonderful memories to share with her and I vow that she will always know she is a Morley, who her daddy is and the kind of man he was. Josh you will be surely missed. I love you son.
