Friends and family of beloved Mason Valley resident Joshua Davis announced that there will be a candle light vigil held to honor and remember him: Sunday, August 14th from 7pm to 9pm at the Mountain View Park in Yerington, Nevada.
Joshua known as “Josh” to those who knew him, was 29 years old and had the local reputation as a hard-working, enthusiastic, young man who loved his family, friends, pets and his community. Josh stood out in the crowd as a “tall drink of water” made even taller with a big cowboy hat, a waxed handlebar moustache and a friendly smile.
Josh’s life was cut short on Monday, August 8th, when he was killed by someone he’d formerly considered his friend. A law enforcement investigation is ongoing.
