Guest Book
Justin Mark Snow of Nashville, TN, was born in Las Vegas on November 10, 1978, and passed away on March 24, 2017.
His father preceded him in passing on August 1, 2012.
He is survived by his mother, Josie; wife, Shelley Evans; his mother-in-law, Judy Evans; his aunts and uncles, Pamela and Frank Pettit, Alan and Patricia Downe, Janice and Edward Turner; and his cousins, Dr. Zoe Pettit, Louise Fergus, Nicholas Manford, and Matthew and Danielle Turner, all of the United Kingdom.
He completed his education at The Meadows School in Las Vegas and Bentley University in Boston. He was a fine athlete, an expert skier, an All State football player, and a top-class hockey player. His love of fishing was legendary! He had a long-career in the hospitality industry. As a sommelier, his knowledge of wines made him a sought-after employee at many top restaurants from coast to coast.
He will be missed by all who knew him for his sense of fun, his off-beat humor, his love and loyalty to his friends and family, and his devotion to his dog Shoogie as well as his love of all animals.

I was looking through some memories the other day & came across your white necklace you gave me that you always had on & the Eminem album. I remember you used to know every single word to all the tracks. Good days & great memories. My daughter still has the leopard teddy you gave her 20 years ago called Justine

Not the news I was hoping to find when looking up an old mate. I was a good friend of Justin from Rottingdean in England, I stayed with the family in Vegas and visited a few times when ever I was able to. Justin even though you have not been a constant physicsal presence in my life you were often in my thoughts over the years and I am deeply saddened. Josie I hope you are OK and if there is anything at all I can do please reach out. I live in the Bay Area now so not too far away.

I never met Justin but knew of him through Joel and Josie who told me of his adventures and how he was getting on in life when they came to the U.K. He was a special guy. Sending my love and support to Josie and her family at this very sad time. May he rest in peace.

To Justin and his family. I have distinct memories of when I started at Flemings. You had a distinct aura that surrounded you, and I always appreciated your humor. We laughed about Adam Sandler Albums, Christopher Walken diatribes, and many other things. I also remember each night I worked, I seemingly took a similar path to the restaurant that you did; West End Ave. Some days I would pull up, snag a spot, and start my shift. Other days, I would pull up and see your white F-150, and I would smile; that is, because I knew that there would be good vibes that night. I'm sorry I lost touch over the last months. You were always very kind to me, and when you cross my mind, I will think fondly of you. Best wishes to your family.

I was blessed to have met such an honest, funny, and caring person like you Justin! I remember when you would walk me to my car late at night after a shift at work to make sure nothing bad happened to me! I was always amazed by how easily you were able to speak your mind and stand up for what you believed in. I am so sorry I could not be there today to say good bye my friend! You will be dearly missed but never forgotten! Rest In Peace Snowman!!

You always called me KittyKat & included me as a part of the family. I'll never forget what all you taught me..not only about wine & the 4 V's but most importantly about compassion, respect & love for your man in the trenches alongside of you. You had my back, always. I'll never forget you or your light. May you shine on. We were lucky to have you. We will miss you Snowman.

My condolences to the Snow family for the brief time I knew Justin he always made me laugh, thanks Justin

It's hard to explain how incredible it is that someone can quickly become so influential in your life and seemingly leave just as quickly. Snow you taught me more about good wine, leadership, and life than I could have ever imagined. You never hesitated to help me fight my battles and stand beside me for the ones that I lost. Even with your rough edges your compassion was unparalleled. Thank you for teaching me, thank you for having faith in me, thank you for being my role model and friend. Despite your best efforts to sway me anyway from it I will still strive to be just like you. So the Snowman sayeth, I'm proud of you and humbled to have been lead by you. Rest easy my friend. You will be missed.

To my very special cousin, I will always remember those special times we shared together when you were growing up and you visited the UK as a young boy and then as a grown up man you came to my wedding and everyone that met you experienced such a positive and great guy, full of energy.

Today I mourn my youth and the person I spent it with, and whom I truly loved. My heart breaks for Josie and those who have lost so many future moments meant to be had. All the memories, stories and pieces I have of Justin will always be held close to me, and the devastation felt forever.

Unbelievable sorrow over the loss of Justin. I remember meeting him the first time as Christopher and I waited our turn to interview for kindergarten at The Meadows. And the summer he lived with us before their senior year. Sending prayers to the family and all of his friends.

RIP Justin. We had a blast playing hockey with the Jr. Aces, working together, and laughing a lot! You were smart funny, witty, and a bit of a loose cannon! Your loyalty as a friend knew no boundary of time! I'll miss you bro!
