OBITUARY

Joshua Joseph Little age 35.

Beloved husband of Melissa Little nee Lauwasser. Loving father of Adalyn Rose Little. Proud son of Joseph and Kerry Little and son-in-law of Barbara Lauwasser and Jack (Jackie) Lauwasser. Anyone Josh met throughout his life whether it be 30 minutes or 30 years, was impacted by him. One can only wish to be surrounded by so much love in a lifetime and Josh was just that, he was loved. On December 11, 2023, at 35 years old he took his last breath. His wife Melissa was by his side, as she has been throughout the last 12 years of his life. At 33 years old she is a widow. However, with great sadness comes light, Josh gave Melissa the most beautiful gift, his legacy in their 16-month-old daughter, Adalyn Rose. Although Addie will grow up without her Daddy, Josh will live on inside of her. We will see him in her smile, her kind heart, and the joy she brings to all of us. Especially, when she says touchdown, while cheering for Josh’s favorite team the Green Bay Packers. Service Sunday 10AM at Chicago Jewish Funerals, 195 N.

Josh was one of the most positive men I've had to fortune to be brothers with. His character was one we will all try to live up too. May you rest easy and shine your light down on us. Love you, Sam

Heaven got a very special angel in Josh. My sisters and I have been blessed to know and spend time with Melissa’s dad and his wife Jackie (who is my right arm at work). The faith and love I have witnessed with this family before during and after Joshua’s battle with cancer is an inspiration of keeping the faith during hard times, because God is with us, especially during the hard times.
