Joshua’s Life

Joshua received degrees in Accounting, Computer Science, and Music from West Virginia University, and his MBA from the University of Tennessee. He is married to Anne Oed (Tyburczy) and they have four children: Patrick, Katie, Maggie and Lizzy.

Joshua was born in April 1979. He was conceived through a sexual assault, and his mother, Kathy Oed (Dunn) raised him as a single parent in the New York City metro area. Joshua’s brother, Matthew, was 11 years older and resided in New Jersey, Connecticut, Massachusetts, and finally New Hampshire. This was the extent of their immediate family.

Kathy passed away at age 55 in November 2002 from cancer, and Matthew passed away at age 35 from respiratory failure stemming from juvenile diabetes. Joshua is currently 45 years old. He’s been documenting dreams of Matthew and their mother for the past 22 years.
