Statement from Joshua’s family
Our son, Joshua Swalls, was last seen on Nov. 3, 2012. After several searches by family and friends and five searches with volunteers from the community, Joshua was found yesterday, Nov. 23, 2012 in the retention pond near 65th & Keystone Ave., Indianapolis, IN.
The outpouring of support, thoughts and prayers from the community, and even around the world, through the searches, our Facebook page, website and Twitter has been tremendous and appreciated far more than each individual person could possibly know. We would like to take this opportunity to send them our deepest and most heartfelt thanks in giving of themselves to help us find our son.
As a family, we ask for some time alone to process what has happened, not only in the last 24 hours, but in the last 21 days as well. All of our energies and thoughts have been focused on bringing our son home, searching from sunrise to sunset in areas we never imagined we would be and talking to people we would probably have never met otherwise. We will announce funeral arrangements and other services for Joshua next week.

Donations can be made at any Key Bank location in the Indianapolis-area by asking the teller to add the donation to the Josh Swalls Beneveolent Account.

Josh, wherever you might be I hope you have a good thanksgiving! I know your family won’t have the same thanksgiving without you. You’ve been gone for too long, come home now! I’m praying for a safe return!
My heart goes out to Josh’s family. He was such a great man and I can’t believe it came down to this. I miss him more than anything and I wish this would of turned out different. Your in my prayers. I’m so sorry for your loss. He’s looking down now on everyone and he’s happy he had the help that he did. He will be missed by MANY including myself. He was a close friend of mine and ill never forget the moments I had with him. May he rest In peace. Miss you josh, always will.
Since I just moved to Pennsylvania, I wish I could be there for your funeral but my family go for me since you were close with them. Look down on us josh and help everyone get through this especially your family. Ill miss you /:
Wow Josh, I can’t believe you’re gone. This seems all too surreal right now. I’m not sure what kind of emotion I should show other then being in shock. I know that this was definitely not the plan that you had intended for. You made darn sure that I knew every time we had hung out that you were going to build your auto repair shops and make sure your family was well taken care of. I remember our silly conversations about there maybe being another life at there and maybe we are being controlled by something that is bigger and greater then the human race. I remember us going out to Broad Ripple and having a blast kicking my butt in pool
Those times I had with you I’ll never forget. You were and still are a remarkable person. We all are hoping including myself that we will just wake up from this horrific nightmare and things will go back to normal. We all miss you and love you! This is never a goodbye but a see you later! My prayers and deepest regards go to you and your family!
