Justin D. Phelps
44, of New Lebanon, passed away Monday, December 2, 2024. He was born May 19, 1980, in Dayton.
He is preceded by father Darrell Phelps; step-father Robert Mack; grandparents, Myrtle and Kash Johnson; grandparents Forrest and Genevieve Phelps; and best feline friend, Frodo.

Justin will forever be missed as a man of integrity who never stopped trying to help others. He lit up the room with his ability to spread laughter anywhere to anyone. His extraordinary capacity to see the good in people was as stubborn as it was unparalleled. He loved learning, believing we are all and always students, and would talk for days about his passions, including tornadoes, baseball, music, food, and snow leopards.
Justin's greatest goal in life was to leave the world a better place than when he entered it. Please consider taking a moment to do something positive in his honor- hold the door for the person behind you, compliment a stranger, call an old friend, think a happy thought, or whatever you like. The world is forever better for having had Justin Phelps in it.
