i want to add a post to the 100 s up for everyone to see and i want
this one to start off the serch!! josh ryan evans died on aug 5 . BUT
most importantly to the one that love him is josh ryan evans LIVED  he
is missed despetrely by my self and the rest of his close loved ones
and countless fans have been very very sweet to express their pain at
his loss but JOsh wasn't about people beoing sad he spent most of his
life working as hard as he could to make people happy he dreamed big
and he lived out most of the dreams he had set out to do.We should be
happy someone like this had the guts to take his life and created his
own reality where one can dream something reach for the stars and then
live out the reality of what was only a dream actually happening in
your life . many of us don't know how to do that even if we have a 100
yrs to try to do it . josh had a few years of life but he lived it to
the fullest and just because someone is 3ft 2in tall doesn't make them
someone othes can't look up to he lived large dreamed big and gave a
lot of laughter to this world please coud we focus on how lucky he
came our way instead of how he is dead . his dream doesn't have to die
nor the sprit nor the smiles he tried to give the world . I miss him
and always will but i will not let death take away a minute of the
magic he sharded with me he tought me how to dream and i for one am
not letting his lesson go to waste . dream big reach for the stars and
smile when you remember my little boy please.

Hi kidstar,

  It is indeed tragic to learn about the deat of Josh R Evans at a
tender age of only 20. Despite his short size, he had a never say die
attitude and he should serve as a role model for all of us.

His famous quote - "My size is an asset to me. People write roles for
me. If I was just another blond-haired, brown-eyed, 18-year-old actor,
I'd be left unrecognized. People remember me." --USA Today, May 19,
2000

This is the second tragedy to strike his family. His brother died in
1980, before he was born, at the age of 9.

Awards:
2000: YoungStar Award: Young Actor in a Daytime TV Series, Passions
2000: Soap Opera Digest Award: Favorite Scene Stealer, Passions

Evans, 3'2", suffered from achondroplasia, a genetic condition that
restricts cartilage growth and physical development. Alas it is the
same condition that took his life away from us.

May his soul rest in peace
