Scott and Marlene – words can not express our sorrow for your loss. Josh was one of the first kids Adam met when starting Pre-K at STA. We have so many memories from little league baseball to taekwondo at the Bel Aire Rec Center. Wishing you peace and keeping you in our prayers. Donna and Curtis Hernandez
