“Josh T. Didulo was born in Omaha on May 24, 1995 to Ignatius T. Didulo and Shari A. Nastase Didulo. In 1997 he became a big brother to Megan T. Didulo. Josh attended one year of preschool at Picotte Elementary followed by a year of preschool at Joslyn Elementary. He attended Fullerton Elementary and Buffett Middle School. During these younger years he participated in the Boy Scouts of America. He was an avid skateboarder and video game player with neighbors, family, and friends. Josh played basketball, soccer, and flag football through the YMCA, Omaha Sports Academy, Mount Michael, and St. Vincent de Paul.
Concordia Lutheran was where he attended high school. Josh played basketball, ran cross country and track. He loved to lift weights and had a dream of being a body builder. His senior year he was so dedicated that he woke up at 4:30 AM to be the first person at the gym daily. It was at Concordia that he began his journey of faith. Josh graduated May of 2013 with a basketball scholarship to Midland University.
While in high school he began working for Hy-Vee. He continued to work for them as he attended Midland. After his college days Josh was promoted to assistant manager in Fremont. Soon after he transferred to the Linden Market Hy-Vee with the same position. Recently he has had the opportunity to work alongside his dad. This was something Josh was extremely proud of. Friends and customers alike often commented on his good work ethic and positive demeanor.
Josh loved to spend time with family and friends. On November 21, 2019 he became our angel and hero. He gave the gift of organ donation and saved the lives of two others with his kidneys.
Josh was preceded in death by his grandfather, Tom Nastase, Jr.; uncles, Ray Nastase and Joseph Didulo; aunt, Theresa Didulo. He is survived by his immediate family members; Shari, Iggy, and Megan Didulo; two grandmothers, many aunts, uncles, and cousins. Josh will be truly missed by all.

So sorry for your loss. We met Josh at HyVee. He was always so friendly. He would always stop and talk. We will miss those visits. Such a special young man!
I am so very sorry for your loss. You all are in my thoughts and prayers.
Shari, I want to express my deepest sympathies for you and your family. Words are not enough at this time, but just wanted to express that you are in my thoughts and prayers!
Rest in peace, my sweet Josh. You have always been sunshine in my day and a reason for me to smile. I will miss your sweetness, your hugs and your kindness. You are so loved.
While this is a grave time of sorrow for such a young life to be ended, please know that Josh was a spark of energy and that he left a mark on many. You can be proud of Josh, his upbringing was evidenced by his courtesy and manners – always pleasant and eager to help. There was no friendlier and more helpful person to be found at HyVee or anywhere. Deepest condolences to family and friends. Josh will be greatly missed by so many.
I am so sorry this is a late message, but I just learned about Josh’s passing when I was at HyVee today and it has brought tears to my eyes. Josh was absolutely one of the kindest and most helpful people. He fully embraced “a smile in very isle.” I can only imagine your pain and am deeply sorry for your loss.
I saw Josh when I shopped at the Linden HyVee. He was a special person, always friendly and willing to help. It was a pleasure to interact with him and watch him with others. He will be missed. You have my deepest sympathy.
I was saddened when I just saw the notice of Josh’s death this evening when I stopped at the Linden Market Hy-Vee. He was always professional, yet very friendly, helpful — he’d jump on a register if he noticed a line, and just a good person to see regularly at my Hy-Vee. I’m so thankful he knew the Lord and I pray for comfort and peace for the family as they continue to grieve, not as those who have no hope, but as those whose hope is their heavenly Father. May the Lord be with you all as you continue through the holiday season without him.
When I first met Josh, in line at Hy-Vee, I was struck by how he carried himself. I could tell it wasn’t just the job but his nature, to be kind and respectful. Josh left a lasting impression, I know not only on me but all those who were gifted glimpses of this sweet young mans character and heart.
