As i stand here, my heart is warmed to see how many lives Justin has truly touched. Justin came into my life through my step father and Justin's dearest friend, and has been wIth our families thru thick and thin. All I can think is how when Justin was in the room no matter the situation or conversation, you just couldn't help but smile. He brought happiness and a true joy for life and genuine love for his family and friends, everywhere he went and in everything he did.... This man is the most selfless caring giving man I've have ever met and feel blessed to have had him as part of our family..... To sum it up.... Justin always has been that friend you called in the middle of the night in a ditch with 2 wheels in the air and he was there chaining his truck to your bumper before you wereoff the phone telling him,no questions asked!! My prayers are with his family and loved ones, that all the love and memories he has given his family will give you all strength and pride in the man that Justin was and the amazing legacy that will live on forever on our minds and in our hearts@
