Josia Cotto: Community Remembers Brave 6-Year-Old’s Battle

My deepest condolences go out to my fellow NYCTalking writer and good friend Monique Rodriguez, along with my prayers and support for the Cotto family.

This weekend, a beautiful little boy named Josia Cotto passed away due to brain cancer. The family, friends, and community are understandably devastated by his loss.

Though I never met or heard of Josia until this weekend, when I read about his passing on Monique’s wall and saw the picture of this smiling young boy, my heart sank and I felt deep sorrow for his loss as well. Even now, as I write this post on the subway, I am moved with sadness.

It is difficult to understand why children have to face such challenges and leave us so soon.

My thoughts and heartfelt condolences are with Monique and all the loved ones of Josia Cotto.

To show your support for the family or to learn more about this brave little boy, please visit this site set up by his parents.

God bless you, little Josia. Though we never met, you touched my heart and the hearts of many others. Dios te bendiga.
