Dear Karen and Richard,
I am so very sorry and heartbroken for you to read the sad news about Justin having passed away so unexpectedly. It is hard for me to comprehend this news, and I know that you both are devastated and inconsolable. Words alone are not able to let you know how very
sad I am, and how I wish I could hug both of you as well as little Mandee.
I will always remember Justin, even though I have never met him in person, but have seen him in so many photos together with you, Ally, and Mandee. Both you, Karen and Richard, as well as little Mandee, are on my mind, and my prayers and thoughts are with you always.
Please accept my deepest and most heartfelt condolences, and may God's grace shine on you. May you find comfort in knowing that you are loved by many people and by the Maltese community.
With quiet thoughts and prayers for you,
Gaby Ollikkala

Justin was so very special to our family for many reasons. He shared a birthday, seven years apart, with our son. We enjoyed watching him grow up in the Episcopal Church as a young boy. Just recently we saw him at lunch and he took the time to stop and visit. That meant so much to us. He was a light and will truly be missed by all who knew him. Sending loving and prayerful thoughts to the family, Carla and Mallory Nimocks

Dear Richard and Karen and Mandee too,
Hundreds of people got to know Justin through your posts, and the love you shared with all of us on Facebook. He was a very special person to so many of us!
Like a friend, a brother, a nephew as someone mentioned. I know I was always excited to see his face and see what he has been up to with his visits to see Mom, Dad and the little white fluffy dog that was wagging her tail the whole time he was there.
We are all completely heartbroken for the loss of your beautiful Justin
Thinking and praying for you both during this unimaginable sorrow.
Your friend, Jennifer Lupo from Arizona

My heart hurts for you both. I cannot fathom the pain parents go through when they lose a child. I pray that our Lord holds you both in his loving, healing arms and carries you through this very difficult journey. I have only met you through our loving pups but, somehow feel close, almost family. Please do not forget the many people who have fallen in love with you...through those precious pups. I know that if there is anything we could do to make this not hurt as bad, you know we all would do it. Be ay peace Justin, and know that you are loved and will be missed. Schnuggle with Ally and Molly and all our puppies that have gone over that bridge. Someday, we again will be together. We love you Richard, Karen and Mandee.
