My dear friend - Jobu - Thank you for lessons you helped me to learn, for the tender words, the support you gave me on my path, and the honesty we shared. May your continued progression take you where you wish to be. We will try to be there for your beautiful Jodee. BTW Justin, do you really have to teach my grandson your favorite hand sign and the tricks you used to play on his mom? AH - what the heck ... we know you are still will us. See you on the other side.

Hi
We didn't find out that Justin had died until Jan. 3. Our good neighbors Norm & Norma Edwards are letting us use their computer so we can send a message.
Justin was a good man. We enjoyed having him for a neighbor when he was young. He had a good heart, and was always concearned about other people. The last time I talked with him, was when he was in Sunshine Terrace Rehab. My Mom is there and I saw Justin in the hallway as I was leaving after visiting my Mom. Justin & I had a good visit. The next few times I visited my mom, I also looked for Justin. We had a few good visits.
I know he had a lot of hardships in his life, but was still a good person & tried to stay posigive about life.
Julia, Cory, & Kim. I hope all is well with you.
Take Care
Andy & Judy Pedersen

Justin and I were close friends years ago. I'd seen him a few times in recent years, and the sweet friendship with him hadn't changed. I was at Oz's funeral, and only just heard of his passing. My condolences to the family -and for you, dear Justin, God speed.

Justin was my neighbor growing up, and on Feb 14 1991, I became deathly ill with pneaumonia, and while walking home from school in a big snow storm I collapsed about 100 yards from my house, when justin saw me, he picked me up and carried me to my door. He will always have a speacial place in my heart for helping me that day. rest in peace Justin. Amber Taylor Koch

I got to know Justin in Logan where we worked on the same factory production line. From that day on we shared many good times and some not so good. Like Jubu, I too am a diabetic and have shared some similar experiences with this disease. Even though I moved away and never saw each other again he was always there for me as a friend and supporter in everything I did. Without this friendship and support I would not have become the person I am today. He gave unconditionally and in full. Rest in peace Big Man.

Justin was amazing, you could tell just by looking at his face that you could count on him. I've known him from North Cache Middle school, and he was in most of my classes. Facebook reconected us, and I'm. Filled with joy that he was able to find love before his time ended. ROCK ON JUSTIN!

I wish to express my condolences to Justin's family. I was his father's wife and Justin came to stay for a summer and became one of his "mom's". He was a special spirit that always tried to carry on in a positive manner no matter now bleak things were. I am sorry that he didn't live to fulfill his dream of a temple marriage, but I'm glad that he had someone he loved by him. Be happy now Justin. Be at peace. I'll miss you, son. Mom Pam
