What happened to Lindsey Goldstein?
Her uncle Eric Goldstein revealed that it was a sudden and tragic loss.
He also said in a public Facebook post that Lindsey was in the middle of planning her wedding when she died.
In 2018, Josh posted a picture with Lindsey wishing her a happy birthday.
The caption read: “Congrats for being a quarter century dead….much love for u sis.” As a result, we can assume Lindsey was in her late 20s.
As some of you may be aware, I tragically & suddenly lost my niece, Lindsey Beth Goldstein, of Haverhill Ma, earlier…
