Joshua Schlarman
Joshua Tyler Schlarman, age 4, of Versailles, Ohio, entered into the arms of Jesus, while he was surrounded by his family, on Friday, January 28, 2022, at his home.
  He was born on May 10, 2017, in Portland, Indiana, to Tyler and Lindsey (Shannon) Schlarman.
  Joshua was preceded in death by his grandpa, Gerald Schlarman; his uncle, Johnny Schlarman; and his cousin, Kirsten Schlarman.
  Joshua loved to look at picture books, and be spoiled by his brothers and sisters. He liked having his hand held and his head rubbed. Although Joshua's life was short here on earth, he now gets to enjoy eternal life in heaven with Jesus and his family who have preceded him.
  Joshua will be forever remembered and loved by his mom and dad; his siblings, Johnathan, Rachel, Emma, and Annalyn; his grandparents, Rick and Kim Shannon of Portland, and Helen Schlarman of Fort Recovery; and many aunts, uncles, and cousins.
  A private funeral service will take place at Brockman Boeckman Funeral Home in Fort Recovery. Burial will follow in Ansonia Cemetery.
