CASTALIA - Joshua Daniel Nims Sr., 42, of Castalia, passed away unexpectedly Thursday, March 26, 2020, due to natural causes, and was received into the arms of his Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. He was born Dec. 1, 1977, in Charleston, S.C., to Danny and Pamela (Feasel) Nims. Josh graduated from Sandusky High School in 1996. He enjoyed serving people, whether it be in the food service, vending or financial planning industry. Josh was a member of the Sandusky Community Church of the Nazarene, where he loved to share his passion for the youth by being heavily involved in the church's youth group. Josh truly had a servant's heart and took care of those around him. He enjoyed Blue Streaks basketball, fantasy football, golfing, bowling, playing Fortnite with his three boys, and cuddling with his baby girl. His greatest joy was spending time with his family and friends. Josh never knew a stranger, he was a friend to everyone he met.
