Passed the road sign honoring you on Kansas SR 69 near Overland Park. Had to research your story. Just want to convey our thanks to you and your entire family for everyone's sacrifice. Our family knows full well, that much of what we enjoy as Americans, we owe to men and women like you and their families. Thoughts and Prayers.

You will never be forgotten Justin. We think of you so often. Your parents and brother have done so many good things for others in your name. I am sure you are so proud of them. It is an honor to call them friends. You were an amazing young man, thank you for your service and the strength you continue to give those you left behind.
