Miss you $56... you were a leader on our Bulldog football team and we followed you each down, each minute, each game. I think I can speak for many that there was never a more competitor that we ever played with and you did it with that big smile. Rest in Paradise bro!

Dettore Family, please except my and my families deepest condolences on the loss of Justin. When I found out I was at a loss for words. I have known Justin for a very long time. I played football with him at both Lower Merion and East Stroudsburg Univ. Mr. Dettore I remember you and Mrs. Dettore very well sir from all the years you have spent as a football booster/supporter at Lower Merion. Joe I also remember you very well from your football days at LM. Losing Justtin makes no sense at all to us right now and all we can do is put our trust in God to helpl us accept it and learn to cope with such a huge loss. Remain strong for your families because Justin was the picture of strength to all those in his life. sorrowfully yours

To Mr Dettore & Family, my sincere condolences on the loss of your son, Justin. I'm shocked and saddened by news and pray for his soul & salvation. I met him thru work at Liberty Sport and will have forever great memories of a fellow Libra who loved working out, smiling , laughing and proud of his family legacy. Also, my prayers are with Laura and children during this time and all family and friends not mentioned who cared and loved Justine and shared great memories in his life.

I knew Justin and Joe as I was growing up. I remember Justin being larger than life! We used to train at the same gym (Olympus, Havertown) then I didn't see him for a while. We met again later in life when we had a mutual friend in Jason Deprince, and we reminisced about the old days. I'm sorry for the family's loss and hope he's with the Creator! God bless his memory and may the Spirit be with his family during this rough time.

Somehow I came across this terrible news about Justin, Jr. I have so many memories of being at the house on Hampstead Rd with Justin, Justin Sr., Joseph, Mr. and Mrs. Dettore, Kathy, Ralph and his family, my parents Elmer and Mildred and my brother Bob. I remember when Justin was playing football, working out, etc. I am so sorry Justin, Sr., and Joseph. He's with his Mom now and Aunt Alice and Uncle Joe.
Love...Gary and Colleen Teears
