Obituary
MADISON- Beloved son and brother, Joshua Marshall Kregness, passed away on Wednesday, Sept. 18, 2019. Born on Aug. 5, 1986, Josh brought laughter and love into our lives. Now spending eternity with his Savior, he leaves behind parents, Ron and Dawn Kregness, siblings, Aaron, Becca, Ben, Sam (Regan) and Ellie, Grandma Lois Olson, dearest friend, Sarah Mueller along with aunts, uncles, cousins and other beloved family.
Joshua, McFarland High School ‘04, UW Madison ‘09, spent most of his adult years in the restaurant industry, including his biggest challenge as owner of Hamilton’s. He had recently begun to pursue a second career as an appraiser and was looking forward to an exciting new chapter in his life. Whether cheering on the Bears, cooking for family and friends, loving his dear Sarah and their dogs and so much more, he did so passionately and with a desire for excellence. Josh’s tender heart felt others’ hurts, noticed their value and sought to love them well. He deeply loved us all and will be deeply missed.
A funeral service celebrating Josh’s life will be held at DOOR CREEK CHURCH, 6602 Dominion Dr., Madison, at 11 a.m. on Monday, Sept. 23, 2019. Visitation will be held at the church from 4 p.m. until 6 p.m. on Sunday, Sept. 22, 2019, and from 10 a.m. until the time of the service on Monday.

For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. II Cor. 4:17

How fortunate we are to have people come into our lives that bring us laughter, and joy, love and learning. This is how I will remember, Josh.
He was a sweet young man, confident in himself, brave to take new adventures, and always had an ear to listen to others.
Love and prayers to family and friends of Josh, that will be missing him on earth. We are all lucky to have him as one of our angels, now.
