Joshua (Josh) Aaron Lyon, beloved son of Shelly and Bruce Lyon of Airdrie, passed away suddenly on Sunday, January 30, 2005 at the age of 19 years. Josh was born in Lloydminster, SK, and lived in Grande Prairie prior to moving to Airdrie at the age of fifteen. Josh was a grad from Bert Church Class of 2004, and was working for IPS in Calgary.

Everything Josh did he did with extreme energy and hard work. He loved sports, all his animals, and his main hobby was collecting friends. Besides his loving parents, Bruce and Shelly, Josh will be sorely missed by his sister April and her fiancÚe Ashley L’Heureux of High Level, AB; brother Brendan; and sister Alysha, both of Airdrie. He is also survived by his grandmother Inga; numerous aunts; uncles; and cousins; the love of his life Jesica Kennedy and his enormous amount of friends.
