Justin Rekemeyer Memoriam

REKEMEYER Justin Lee 6/28/1974 6/10/1994 In loving memory of my son Justin who was tragically killed 25 years ago today. There isn't a day that I don't think of you and all the wonderful memories we shared. I look at your pictures that once made me smile and now I break down and cry tears of sadness. Time has not eased my heartache, my sorrow or my grief. I love and miss you more than words can ever express. Until we are together again, I will not be at peace. With All My Love, Mom

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.

I was in town to visit my parents and I was hoping to see your Mom but I missed her. I heard she was health issues, I will stop by the house to see her before I leave town. I thought your flowers were beautiful and the picture of you an your Mom was so special, it brought tears to my eyes. I can't even begin to think what the last 25 years has been like for her without you. I will attempt to call her and see if she is has time to see me before I leave on Sunday night, either way I will stop and visit with you before I leave. "Fly High in Heaven and one day I will see you again".

I was in town to visit my parents and I stopped in to visit with you and I thought I would have seen your Mom, I heard that she has been very sick. I thought your flowers and the picture of you and your Mom were beautiful. You were one of a kind and I am sure everyone who knew you felt that way too. You are missed by all the people who knew you so well. Fly High My Friend until we meet again

I have been dreading this day, just as I dreaded Joseph's anniversary in May. 25 years is one of those major milestones that makes it somehow worse. I tell my kids about how funny you were and I am only sorry they never met you as I know they would have loved you. Hard to believe they are older than you were when you left us at 19. Hard to imagine you as a 44 year old man as you are permanently 19 in my mind. I hope that you are with your beloved Poppy and Gram and all those you loved and who loved you and that you are happy as you made others happy. Thinking of you and your Mom today - I know this is a terrible day for her. Wishing comfort and peace to all who mourn. - Clare-a Bear-a
