I'm so sorry to hear about your family's loss of Justin, who was so young,

I lost a daughter, when she was only 23. A parent isn't to bury a child, and I understand the pain you are feeling.

I lived in Holton from 2006 - 2011, and keep in touch with some of my friends from there.

My thoughts and prayers will continue to be with your family.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and yours in your loss. I know Justin had to be special since he was yours. May it help to find peace knowing family and friends are thinking of you at this time.

I am so sorry for your loss and extend my deepest sympathies to family and friends. It is so hard to lose a loved one, especially under these circumstances. May the peace that the God of all comfort provide sustain you as you go through this most difficult time.

Every time I think I've cried as much as I can about it and I gather myself together, I have a thought that makes all the tears come rushing back. My heart is breaking for Justin's family and friends. He was such a fun, goofy, lively guy. Always had a way of making people happier. He had a beautiful, kindred soul that will be deeply missed. May God's gentle hands comfort all and bring peace to our hearts in this time of devastating loss.
