Joshua Thomson

Of Saugus. Died unexpectedly in his home on Friday, July 7^th at the age of 37. He is the son of Barry Thomson, who recently passed, and Jacqui (Burke) Solier, who resides in Saugus.

Joshua was born and raised in Brookline through his early years. He later attended Saugus schools, eventually taking residence there.

Josh always loved animals – learning about them and caring for them. He enjoyed being outside, riding his motorcycle. His dad was his best friend and they took on life together every step of the way. He loved his family and his friends. He was loyal, loving and trusting. His laugh and hugs were incomparable and will be very missed.

In addition to his mother, Joshua is survived by his brother Joie Thomson, his sister Nicollette McNelis, and their four children. He also has many aunts, uncles and cousins.

In lieu of flowers, donations in Joshua’s memory may be made to the Northeast Animal Shelter, 347 Highland Ave, Salem, MA 01970 or at www.northeasternanimalshelter.org.

At the request of the family services are private.
