Joshua Michael Joseph Rector

In Loving Memory

With heavy hearts and deep sadness, we announce the sudden passing of Joshua, on Monday, November 10, 2025. We take comfort in knowing that his Dad was waiting in heaven with open arms to bring him home.

Adored son of Julia Taylor (Andrew) and the late Michael Rector (Jennifer), and his stepmother Michele Zilinski. Joshie's pride and joy were his nieces and nephews, Logan, Kiera, Jessey, Klara, Izabella, and Kloie. He will be deeply missed forever by his siblings, Jamie Embree (Elliott) Jordyn Rector, and Michael Jakob Rector (Tina). Forever missed by his most loving and endlessly devoted Uncles and Aunts, all of his close-knit cousins, and all of his friends that loved him like family. Last but not least his beautiful grandparents, some are here with us and some are in heaven with Joshua.

You have left a hole in all of our hearts and an emptiness that can never be filled. You had the biggest heart and kindest soul.
Until we meet again please find peace and rest your beautiful soul Joshua.
