Joshua Peters
March 7, 1984 – July 8, 2022
It is with deep sorrow we announce Joshua Peters left this world on July 8, 2022. Josh was born March 7, 1984 and was raised in Langham, SK. He and Candice later chose to raise their own family in Langham. He loved being a father and was a fierce advocate and cheerleader for his children, while also being a wonderfully fun parent. He loved the outdoors and spent many hours canoeing with his family on the North Saskatchewan River in summer. Josh was a gifted musician who was deeply connected with the music scene in Saskatoon and involved with several musical projects throughout his life. He loved all creative endeavours, but especially loved composing lyrics.
He is deeply missed by Candice, their children Larson and Evelyn, Josh’s parents Edwin and Mary Ann, his siblings Nathanial (Sasha), Chelsea (John), Cherise (Matthew), and Holly, and many nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles, cousins, and countless friends.
A Celebration of his Life will be held at Lakeview Church, 19 Glazier Rd, Saskatoon, SK on Friday, July 15, 2022 at 2:00 PM, with a luncheon to follow.

For all of Josh’s family and friends, I give you my deepest condolences!!! My heart goes out to all of you and you will be in my thoughts and prayers!!
I have found memories of being around Josh as a young boy in the clubs that I was a part of.
Much love to all of you!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Was very sad to hear this. Josh and I met working together at kenroc years ago. He was very passionate about his family, and we connected on that level for sure. We shared many laughs and conversations about life and spirituality. We kept in touch after we stopped working together, grabbing the occasional lunch to catch up, and eventually trading his trade of massage, for mine of tattooing. Josh was always such a positive, motivated person, and I always left our meetings feeling inspired to live life well. He loved his life, and was always trying to figure out how to be a better dad , husband, friend ., he had an infectious zest for life. He made the world a better place. I’m gonna miss him a lot. My deepest condolences to Candace and his children, and his family and all that loved him. Rest in power my friend.

My condolences to Josh’s entire family and his friends, I am so sorry for your loss.
I can’t begin to explain how valued Josh’s friendship was, whether it be through the special bond he and Mike had, through our work with the band, or through our sharing of art and music. Josh’s kindness and caring towards his friends, family, and everyone he met was immeasurable, and his creativity was unsurpassed.
Josh spoke often of the cherished people in his life, my prayers are with you all.
Our hearts go out to you as you grieve the loss of your son. We pray you will feel the love of God and of your surrounding family and friends during this very difficult time..
We are so sorry for your tragic loss and pray the God of comfort be with and near you in this. We love you and are keeping you in prayer.
I came to know Josh through his work at Kenroc and always enjoyed my chats with him. Always interested in what I was up to and just a genuinely nice person. He will be missed!!!
My deepest condolences to the family.
I had the pleasure of getting to know Josh over the last number of years through his work.
I’ll truly miss him as my sales rep and as a friend.
Every time I called on Josh for help he was there and did everything in his power to solve a problem. His kindness did not go unnoticed yet I doubt I ever expressed how much I appreciated him. (Lesson for us all)
I’m glad I was able to have Josh in my life, and to his family I’m so very sorry he is gone.
Best Regards
Jeff Wells – Wells Constuction
I just want you to know, Maryann & family, that we are all thinking of you and praying that God will comfort you in such a tragic, sad time!
Mary Ann,
I am so very sorry about the tragic passing of Joshua. My heartfelt sympathies to you and your family members.
I am so deeply saddened to hear of Josh’s passing. My condolences to all of his family and friends during this difficult time.
A talented life taken too soon. Candice, Larson, Evelyn and family, feel all the love surrounding you and hold onto all the fond memories. Keeping you all in my thoughts and prayers and sending all my love.
Sincere condolences to Candace and family. I fondly remember many discussions with Josh; I enjoyed his quick wit and wonderful sense of humour. He will be missed.
Josh was our sales rep since our very first build and from the moment I met him he made an impact. We were new to the industry and really had no idea what we were doing and Josh went out of his way, took us out for lunch and helped us do takeoffs from our drawings.
Through the years of getting to know Josh, I learned about his kids, his siblings and his talents in music and writing. I joked many times with Josh that we wanted to clone him because he was one of our best sales reps through his excellent communication skills and easy-going attitude.
Not only will his family and friends have a huge void without him, the construction industry will feel it as well. Sending much love to Josh’s family, friends and colleagues.
There are no words to ease the pain. I know you all will keep all the Sweet Memories close to your hearts now and always. Please call if you need help with anything at anytime. 🙏🏻Rest In Peace Josh and know that you are loved🙏🏻
