Josey graduated in 2015 and continued his education in diesel mechanic at NDSCS in Wahpeton, ND. He later returned to live on the family farm with his girlfriend, Remington Harder. As a subcontractor, Josey specialized in flooring, carpentry, and masonry.

Josey enjoyed hunting, fishing and spending time with his family, especially playing with his nieces and nephews. He always looked forward to family vacations at the cabin and road trips to Colorado. Remembered for his huge heart, Josey had a great love for people and animals, including his dog, Maggie. He loved visiting with anyone and rarely could go anywhere without running into someone he knew. He was so proud of every truck he ever owned as well as being able to fix anything with his DeWalt tools.
