Very sorry to hear this, Josh and I have been hobby acquaintance's for over 20 years. He always had time to sit down and talk one on one, each and every time we ran into each other. He will be missed in the hobby as he was one of the hobby pioneers of the modern era.

I knew Josh for almost 35 years and he was always very interesting to chat with. I will miss seeing him at the big shows.
His mom posted this on FB: Josh is most wonderful son to me. He made my life happy and complete. Sad to say that my darling son is no longer with us. Missed by his sister Andrea Young. Sincerely, Maxine Rosen Evans RIP Joshua Leland Evans Regards Rich

This is awful news. I knew he had been very sick. He was always a strong supporter of our forum. And more importantly he and I had a special relationship. It was all good. At least a few times he yelled at me and we ended up hugging. I believe he spoke at no less than 3 Net54 dinners. He was always a trooper. I appreciated every thing he did for the forum and the hobby.
I will definitely miss him a lot. RIP friend. Condolences to his family and friends.

I too was dismayed to hear of Josh's passing. We had exchanged emails and messages on hobby related stuff (including postings here on this board) for years and I had a chance to talk to him a handful of times over the years. Great guy who will be missed.

From 1999-2009 Josh and I were tight. Like really tight. We spoke on the phone every day. We traveled the country, Canada and Europe together. I have so many great memories.
We were truly friends inside and outside of the hobby. He was a mentor and the most knowledgeable hobby generalist I have ever met (along with Heff). He was a huge personality and he made a huge impact on my life. My condolences to the Evans family (Andrea and Maxine) and to Lelands Scott Gaynor

So sorry to hear this. The first live auctions I attended were Leland's live auctions in NYC across from Penn Station in the early-mid 1990's. Josh had a meaningful impact on my personal collecting focus and he will be missed. My deepest condolences to his family.
