Bub...You can't choose your family, so I guess I was just lucky to have a brother like you. We fussed and we teased, we had fights and we had fun, and always in my heart I knew that I would do anything for you. You can never know how proud I am to tell the world, "That's my brother," but I'm even prouder to say, "That's my friend." I miss you like crazy...you will always be with us in our hearts!! I will cherish all the memories I have with you, and await the day we meet again. Love ya always and forever your little sister<3

Justin you are forever in my heart, God looked around his garden and found an empty place . He then looked down upon His earth and saw your loving face. He saw your path was difficult and He closed your weary eyes, He whispered to you " Peace be Thine " and gave you wings to fly. It broke my heart to lose you, but you did not go alone. For part of me went with you on the day God called you home.. You will always be my loving son, I Love & Miss you with all my heart ! Take Care & one day I will see you again !! Love you Mom
