Joshua Bagans

Joshua Brandon Bagans

Hilarious, compassionate, radiant, brother, son

It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of our brother and son, Josh Bagans. He was a radiant person who filled rooms with laughter and he would always put the needs of others before himself. Though we grieve our loss, there is joy, too, in having known and loved such a special person.

An opioid addiction ultimately claimed Josh’s life, despite the attempts at rehabilitation, re-entry programs, and family intervention. It is our hope that Josh’s story and our loss can prevent others from the same fate.

Opioid settlement funds were meant for treatment and prevention — but too many states are misusing them. Your gift helps us track every dollar and protect life-saving programs.
