"Josh...what can I say my friend? You lit up the threshold of every doorway you graced. Your infectious smile and calming presence would make me grin like a Cheshire cat from the moment I saw you, each and every day," Wallwork's friend, Elle Lated wrote.
"One day, with a huge smile on your face you finally asked, 'What are you so happy about E?' - to which I responded, 'You. I can't help it, whenever I see you I feel happy!' We burst out laughing and continued that way every day... Can you imagine that? Someone having the type of presence that could make you instantly forget whatever may have been troubling you the moment before? Well that was Josh...and he had it in spades.
"He recently shared with me that he was the happiest he'd ever been. He was happy with his job on SVU but even more importantly, he was in a loving, healthy relationship. He had a sparkle in his eyes as he spoke and I could feel his joy.
"Before he stepped away to continue on with his day, I remember saying, 'You're such a beautiful soul Josh, you deserve it all.' He giggled, graciously blushed, and set about taking the continuity photos of the day.. Josh was amazing..and taken way too soon..and he will be sorely missed by us all. Many hearts were broken today."
