Justin T. Fillios, 20, of Worcester, passed away on Monday, February 3, 2020 at UMass Medical Center surrounded by the loving presence of his family and friends.
Justin was born in Framingham, Massachusetts on July 12, 1999. Justin was proud of his time as a student at the Advanced Math and Science Academy in Marlborough. He had a spirit to serve and was active with the former Central Mass Young Marines. Reverse engineering and tinkering were Justin’s passions. He was a master at figuring out how things work. You could never be sure what he might disassemble, but his talent assured it would be fixed and repaired when he was done. Justin was very much a free spirit, known for his spontaneity and high energy. He loved to be on the go. Justin’s special gift was sharing his heart with others. He had a keen awareness of others’ needs and was always willing to help. He was thoughtful, empathetic, and selfless. His joy was in giving to others in need.
Justin is survived by his father, Robert J. Fillios and his wife Lauren and his mother Sandra J. (Beniquez) Landon and her husband Shaun; three brothers, Jordan Fillios of Los Angeles, CA., Calvin Fillios of Hudson and Nico Fillios of Berlin; his maternal grandparents, Yolanda Youtsey of Worcester and Norman Youtsey of Butler, KY; three step-brothers, Noah, Ethan and Luke Landon of Natick; his godparents, Tony and Donna Moreno of Shelton, CT; many aunts, uncles and cousins including Brian Fillios of Berlin, Brady and Mallory Fillios both of Grand Blanc, MI. He is predeceased by his paternal grandparents, Frank and Barbara (Souhlaris) Fillios and his paternal grandfather, Samuel Beniquez. The family is deeply grateful and wishes to thank Eric Rackliff for his unwavering support and friendship he gave Justin over the years.
Services will be held privately with a public Celebration of Life to follow on February 23, 2020 from 1:00-5:00 p.m at 19 Carter (community center) in Berlin, MA. MERCADANTE FUNERAL HOME & CHAPEL, 370 Plantation St., Worcester is honored to be assisting the family with arrangements.

I'm praying for God's comfort and strength during this difficult time of Unimaginable loss for our family. May God continue the give you all the peace and surpasses all human understanding. Justin was an Amazing young man and a Blessing to all he knew. My heart goes out to my nephew Bobby, Lauren, and Sandee and his wonderful brothers Jordan & Calvin and our family.

Love you and miss you more than I can describe! You always loved and accepted everyone for who they were, and actually cared for the people around you. Thank you for all the days we hung out a couple summers ago, and for the funny times we shared as we grew up together. You really were the big brother I needed in my life. To all the great memories, and I hope we cross paths somehow again. Love you!
(and yes, you can take a coke off the front porch if you want.)

I remember justin as a kind caring individual. I met him back in 5th grade he and me had that connection we were the class clowns of the room I remember riding my first dirt bike with him. Him and his dad teaching me. I feel so empty now that hes gone. We went on school field trips together we did everything together. I dont know how to handle this. I feel so heavy. Bobby and Lauren please accept my condolences. He was more then a friend to me he was like a brother.
