May 18, 2016. He is survived by his parents, Lynn Shropshire McBride of Mount Airy and Robert Ora McBride of Wilmington. Josh was born in Leesburg, Va., on January 13, 1988. He was a 2006 graduate of Leesville Road High School in Raleigh and attended classes at Cape Fear Community College.Adopted at birth, Josh was a happy, cheerful, joyful child and much loved by all. He was truly a special gift of life to both his parents. Josh’s greatest joys were his friends, Cabela (his beloved Black Lab), Jeeps, trucks, dirt bikes and anything that went off-road. His many friends describe him as caring, loving, giving and a ‘good kid,’ who would give you the shirt off his back. He was loved and cherished by all. Josh was employed by Valvoline in Asheville; he loved his job and his coworkers. In his early 20s, Josh served as a volunteer firefighter in Wake County.Josh fought a brutally honest, courageous and painful fight with addiction. Sadly, that was a battle he would not win.

Ask LaFleur: How is the money for my South Carolina wildflower license plate spent?

The focus is broader now, but funds raised by the plates still go exclusively toward beautification projects through the Highway Beautification Fund, according to the South Carolina Department of Transportation website.  A state law that dates back to 1990 mandates that the fund may only be used for landscaping, wildflower planting, scenic easements or other highway enhancement projects. Eligible projects include wildflower planting, gateway projects, landscaping and bike or pedestrian paths, according to DOT. Ask LaFleur: When will Greenville glass recycling begin? Rubbing alcohol challenge: What made the South Carolina case more dangerous? Brian Keys, deputy secretary for finance and administration for DOT, said the department is currently working to finalize an agreement with the South Carolina Department of Parks and Tourism specifically for beautification projects tied directly to welcome centers across South Carolina.  The fee for the "Keep It Beautiful" plate is $54 for two years. It's available to all South Carolina residents. More than 12,000 of the tags have been purchased, according to DOT, and the tag is one of the state's most popular specialty plates.
